It was good but there was only one towel ready for us instead of three ,which makes it incomplete. The pillows were a-bit higher than usual , which made our necks hurt, and the fan wasn’t strong enough. But it was a good stay overall.
The young girl on reception was very helpful and polite

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Carpet in room stained and general decor bit scruffy. Swimming pool was out of action, which was disappointing as we had scheduled this into our stay. Reception staff not particularly enthusiastic.
Unfortunately, the pool was not in operation due to maintenance. The room was old and no thermostat available to control the air, the room was boiling. Tried purchasing bottle of water but none available, no shampoo/conditioner in room. Pillows were hard and sheets were stained. The friendlyness of the staff was to e bare minimum. The hotel was run down.

We had a lovely stay, the receptionist were very friendly.
The property overall was tired and unkept .The room had been smoked in and was shabby.The mattress and pillows were worn out and uncomfortable. The bathroom facilities were outdated and not working very well although plenty of hot water. The hotel food was disappointing and not worth the money and made us unhappy staying there.

For what we paid we got value for money. The property is run down and scruffy. Short on staff who do their best. Breakfast was good value. Evening meal not so good.
The staff were unfriendly. The whole place was tired and unclean. The pool was freezing and area dirty. The breakfast was very basic. The room had mould around the windows and stains over the walls. I would not stay here again.

Nice hotel in a quiet place. Staff were friendly and helpful
Staff were friendly and efficient. The bathroom was clean as were the sheets and bed linen. However the curtains were filthy and the tv remote didnt work. As i was only staying overnight it didn't affect my stay but i would have raised it if i was staying longer.

Typical Brittania Hotel. A bit run down but perfectly good for a solo traveller passing through like myself. Easy parking and about 15b mins walk to Town
Property is a very average Budget Hotel. A long distance from town centre and is at least 20 min walk to nearest supermarket. No pub in area. 20 min walk to nearest beach. Parking spaces are tight & narrow. Reception staff leave a lot to be desired. No room service during 4 nt stay.
