Positives - on the beach front with lovely views, just a short walk to all the tourist attractions.
Very nice English breakfast.
Staff were polite and efficient.
Lobby areas neat and tidy. Good lunch food.
Negatives. Upstairs hallways and bedrooms are in very poor condition. Peeling wallpaper, dirty sofas, threadbare carpets, scratched paintwork and faded curtains.
Private Parking advertised but still costs £25 a night.
Limited amenities.

Best is location and staff. Both are top notch. Breakfast above average too.
Rooms are spacious and well appointed, but the whole building needs constant tlc as it is battered by strong winds and rain some spells during the year, but understandable if anyone knows Brighton's weather.

Our room and bathroom could not have been any cleaner, a real improvement on our previous experience. This hotel takes its guests feedback seriously. Had a great stay in this slightly tired but welcoming hotel in a perfect location in Brighton.
