Very easy to find, great value

Dorm with 8 beds was in a room not really big enough for 8 and with only 1 bathroom.

The location

No shower, no wardrobe, scaffolding up outside room window. Very busy reception with school kids

Elizabeth · GB · 2026-07-25

Expensive, awful dump of a place with filthy mattresses and pillows, avoid at all costs.

1.0

Forget the scaffolding and building work, this hotel or hostel is a dump. I didn’t like anything about the property and couldn’t wait to leave.

See above, awful place, the room had filthy mattresses and pillows and all you could hear was the noise from the guests staying in the room above. For a family room I expected more for my money than a double bed with a crappy bunk bed. I complained to the reception staff but I might as well of talked to myself.

Great Location, clean & comfortable! Great bar!

8.0

Functional but basic! Did everything i needed!

The breakfast was very bad and not worth the £11 for myself & my friend each for two nights!

Expect functional with a fantastic location

6.0

The location is perfect, we had a sea view of the palace pier, breakfast was ok, it had what we needed. The staff are very pleasant and helpful. The room was nice and clean and the bathroom everything worked as it should, there’s also a tv in the room which we didn’t expect so that was good.

We hadn’t realised it was a hostel when booking, it’s kind of half way between a hostel and hotel so the rooms are functional without any decor or luxuries and not the comfiest. Scaffolding and netting covered the entire building, we weren’t told when booking. The lift wasn’t working.
