Great Location near Pleasure Beach

fabulous locationfriendly ownernormal size bedguest happiness

The hotel's location is fabulous near the tram stop, providing easy access to Pleasure Beach. The owners are friendly and helpful people. I liked that the room had normal-sized beds, not bunk beds. They care about guest happiness and the hotel business.

The room felt a little cold. It is important to remember it's an OLD building.

The hotel offers free WiFi, which worked perfectly throughout my stay. I found convenient on-site parking, which cost an additional £5 each day and made travel simple. I appreciated how safe my car was at the front.

Location

9/10

The hotel is near many activities perfect for families visiting the area. The location is excellent. The beach is a short walk away. The hotel's quiet location near the promenade provides the BEST of both worlds.
