Last Minute Book
We had to book this last hotel last minute due to other property we had booked seeming to be a scam so was looking for anywhere close to stay as already in the area.
Hotel is very dated but the staff were very friendly.
The room was at the front so very noisy with traffic and as the day was hot had to have all the windows open but the room was also so hot with underfloor heating on in the bathroom and the radiators which could not be turned off.
Breakfast was good and again waiting staff very friendly.
Hotel just needs a good revamp and the heating situation really does need attention.

Perfect location for our trip with easy parking and access to plenty of dining options nearby. Helpful and friendly staff.
Clean, basic hotel perfect for our needs. Will definitely co time to use The Wessex
Don't book this hotel. Simply the worst I've seen.
We did not stay the hotel is in poor state Did not look good as we pulled up. Going in to the foyer we were dubious but did check in as been on the road for over 5 hours.
However we did not put are bags down. The bedding was stained the pillows thin and lumpy. The bath tub had rust in the bottom.
The room was smelt like an old train carraige. No upgrade in the 50 years since it was built. We checked straight back out and have requested a refund. I would have been upset to pay £50 per night but it is laughable to charge double. We had to continue our journey to Barnstable to an outstanding hotel called the Park Hotel. Chalk and Cheese is the phrase.
The staff were helpful and friendly. The place needs serious updates and repairs. Was painful to see the lift out of order for disabled elderly person.

Great Service but hotel is needing a renovation
Great service but the hotel is needing some tlc - Beeakfast was great
The state of maintenance was appalling. It would appear that no money has been spent on this property for 30 years

The reception area and dining room where very well presented. Breakfast has a very good choice. Very pleasant waitress. Bedroom was clean and tidy but was looking a bit tired. Could do with freshening up.
