Late arrival, good services by the owner. The house under refit downstairs so couldn't really tell, and ended up going the back alley. Difficult going up the stairs carrying a tired toddler and bag. ATM is not recommended for people who have trouble going up outside upside the stairs. However you can exit and enter via the back door without through the building. The room was a good size, lovely, warm and relaxing with TV drawer and wardrobe. The bathroom and shower are all to share with other 5 rooms. Not recommended for those who don't do sharing with others or require a bathroom for themselves. The shower is ok but can be a squeeze with a young toddler when drying or to put her in pj, as my daughter fell over in the sea that evening. There are two toilets and a sink in between. DIY breakfast which isn't my liking unfortunately but nice idea, notice it comes and goes during the day however I find the kitchen left a little mess when I need water which puts me off a little.The building itself is on the corner of three different roads so be careful when looking for parking as I am almost undecided where to park when I arrive.The car park is on the road, so if you are lucky or not, you can find parking next to or far distance from b+b and it is also near the park and beach. Overall we stop over one night as we travel back home from halfway point from Scotland.Recommend solo or couple to stop at this b+b than family ideal or 2/3 night max as it does have a good selection of things to do near the location.The view is just street houses. Mine is facing opposite shop premiers I think.

We were just staying for one night. I'd read some of the reviews and wasn't expecting much but think that the bad reviews for this place are unjustified. Yes you enter the property by the back gate and stairs which isn't the most flattering view of the property but not an issue, more difficult with small kids or the elderly of course. You can park right outside for free and it's less than a 5 min walk to the centre of town. The room itself was large, clean with flat screen TV, WiFi and tea and coffee. Bed was ok, mattress not the best but fine for one night, slept well. Breakfast is continental, it's fruit, yoghurt, tea, coffee, orange juice, cereal, crumpets, small croissants etc. It's basically a little help yourself station. The two things they could do better, a little eating area for breakfast and to get rid of some marks on the bedroom wall. I believe that they are currently decorating so may be on course to do this. Overall for £50 it met my expectations and I would stay again. If you are staying here please don't expect the Ritz for budget prices. This place is comfy and fine for what we needed, breakfast was nice. It would definitely be better to enter the b&b through the front door if possible.

We were met by the owner who was nice and friendly. They were decorating at the front of the hotel so we had to go round the back and go up an iron fire escape which wasn't a problem for us . It was cheap and you get what you pay for so i cant compline to much . However the carpets weren't fitted properly and a trip hazard. Im not convinced the doors were fire proof and someone was smoking in the room next to us that the corridor was stinking and so was our room , this is obviously not the owners fault that customers abuse the rules. The room was ok but wasn't very clean and breakfast was shocking. Everything in the fridge was off and frozen as the setting must of been to high. There wasn't even any butter for the toast and all the cereal bars had been taken. The quilt was extremely thin and old and i could go on . Would i personally stay here again no . However it is central and good for families with not much money or lads weekend away.

It was nice as soon as we arrived, small room but not like I needed the space, customer service was friendly and very attentive.I recommend if anyones looking for a place to stay, put your bags and see the rest of the cute little island, close to amenitiesSafety: Rooms and doors are fob and key protectedWalkability: Get a taxi, Lots around,not a far walk from bus stopsFood & drinks: Everything you need in walking distance.

Had to arrive through the back entrance and climb metal stairs with heavy bags. Room had 2 single beds, mattresses felt really cheap and weren't comfortable. Shared bathroom across landing next to a self service breakfast station. Not a lot within walking distance and parking wasn't great. Car window had been spat on over night.

Very welcoming host who had no issue with us having our 5 Beagles in our room. Lovely and clean room and a very comfortable bed. Breakfast was self service continental style but with a good variety of choices. Car parking plentiful. Great chinese nearby and a handy newsagent across the road too. Lovely peaceful area but still within easy reach of facilities.

I wouldn t recommend it! No toilet in the rooms, but 2 sharing showers and toilets in the corridor for 5 or 6 rooms. Even though on booking said opened 24 hours, at 01.00am was closed and the manager was kind of cranky he was woken up to check in.Breakfast was included in the booking but all we got were some biscuits, cereals and instant coffee. No hot breakfast!The windows are not closing completely and the linen was not changed. This facility should be closed!!??
