Location was good
Poor bar selection of drinks, only one very little bottle of shower gel which wasn’t replaced when room was cleaned, and the same for the tea and coffee was not restocked.

Won't be going back......
Location was great, parking permit a bonus if you can find a space!
Communal areas and room decor was very tired, bed not very comfortable, thinnest pillows I have ever seen.

Great for a 1 night stay
The staff were super friendly. The location is great, central to everything, the pier is just opposite, the town centre a few minutes walk away. I had a single bed, but it was extremely comfortable.
I'd say it's good value for money, although they charged me £10 for early entry, which was fine as I arrived into Gatwick airport at 8am! It's an old hotel in great need of updating. The room was comfortable, but the paint on the window frame and sill was peeling and rusty.
The carpeting needs replacing. The furniture in the lounge area was dated and the table tops were peeling. It needs a lot of tlc!

Lovely place
Amazing place. Very good location and affordable price.
To be honest it was the cleanest hotel I was ever in Eastbourne. I will come back there soon!

Love Eastbourne. Great place to stay right opposite the pier
Excellent location. No food taken
Very hot room. Couldn’t leave window open because a seagull came in.

So close to the pier and town
Evenings not so good, lots of shouting in the early evenings, this was from residents who lived up the street,

Great value for a great stay
Location is the best, they even gave me ocean view room, big surprise, price is too good to be true, I had great sleep with earplugs. Waking up with the sound of seagulls and ocean waves is nice!
The shower pressure is not good, the worst is that I found a used toilet paper behind bathroom door, maybe it was stuck there and staff didn’t see it, but what kind of guests left used toilet paper on the floor, with poop on the paper?! But for this price, it is ok. And there is also no bathroom rug to dry feet.
