Stayed here for 2 days and felt the place somewhat dreary. Our room wasnt as clean as it could be but the bed was very comfy and clean. Walls very thin and you could hear partying going on in the bar area below us most of the night. Everything seems to revolve around the bar area which isnt good if... More

Thank you for taking the time to write this review. In response I would just like to say we have only been running this guest house for 12 months so we are trying our best to make our place a very comfortable stay. We knew it needed decorating, but had to still open to make the cash to do the... More

We stayed for 3 days second time we have been. Max and Bill were very welcoming and could not do enough for us. The company in the hotel was excellent and we as a family made some fantastic mates namely Mrs Brown. Our kids really enjoyed their stay mainly due to the location of the hotel and they love Max...

After reading the expected trip advisor review all I can do is apologise once again. We don't only look after our regulars, we look after all of our guests. The heating is on in the hotel, if there was a problem with the heating we should have been informed and we would have rectified the situation. I take on board... More

Prime location just off the Golden Mile and 2 minutes away from the pleasure beach and water park. Greeted with a warm welcome and told to leave my car on the road and the landlord would park it in their locked carpark at the rear, immediately impressed with his skill at parking, very tight space! The room was small but... More
