Staff should be made available all the time , although bedding and towels were clean the mattress was stained and rooms need a good makeover regarding decor a lot needs updating
Check in was really easy which was good. Room was clean. My only advice would be more pillows and bigger mugs and a teaspoon.
However we were woken at 1am by some idiot vaping in their room and setting of the fire alarms!! Then never got back to sleep due to the inconsiderate piss heads arriving back at all hours up to 5am. Now get they are young and im not a party pooper but maybe in the hotel description it should mention that its let out to young people so oldies like me wouldnt book it. Also maybe a fan in the rooms as the windows are tiny and the room was like an oven.
We didnt stay at the property as it made us feel uncomfortable we had booked a room with a sea view couldnt see through the windows as it was misted up.also plug socket was broken off the wall.no receptionist.there was noise everywhere around the property felt like a hostel it was horrible
The rooms need updating the look of the rooms are poor the bathroom door does not Evan shut properly you have to lift the door to close it, the window does Evan have a handle, it all needs painting just all needs updating!!
Wasn’t clean door was open already on arrival had to call to check in as no one was there to meat us was meant to be mine an my partner first night away together but end up driving two hours back home looked nice on pictures but was false advertising
Absolutely disgusted with my stay. The bedding was disgusting with urine patches on from not having clean bedding. The noise is horrendous. There was also a constant smell of faeces. I tried making a complaint and noone is interested
Our Room Was As Described, 32" Smart T.v With Free WiFi That Worked Well With My Amazon Firestick.Quiet & No Noise At All From Other Residents On Our Stay.Clean Bedding & Comfy Beds, We Paid Just Under £94's For 2 Nights Which Was Good For A Budget Hotel Stay In Skegness. V.F.M

No heating in the room. It was cold. Neither normal radiator or oil radiator in the room worked. Phoned the number, got another heater brought to the room, took a good while to warm the room up
Got one shower then the hot water went cold. It was still cold the next morning
Curtains were falling down cigarettes holes in them room stunk window wouldn't shut flooring was ripped up shower wouldn't work properly beds were ok but rock hard !!!!! Pillows were flat and you get 1 the bathroom slide door wouldn't shut or open really needs work done

It is what you pay for nothing special, staff were great and very helpful,
Upon arrival i had problems checking in as this hotel DO NOT have staff working there i had call a number to gain access into the property when i looked in the room allocated to myself and my wife it was was absolutely disgusting no pillow cases on pillows and the pillows had a lot of dirt on them the bed linen was disgusting when i pulled back the quilt there was no heating on in the room which i would expect being winter we could not stay there as it was absolutely horrible place when i asked for my money back there reply was NONE REFUNDABLE and had too book another hotel
The staff were super nice but the room was super basic, there was no wifi, and the room was super creaky. It could do with an update and remodel to improve the shower. Good for short stays, wouldn’t do more.
I like it because its cheap and a comfortable stay . And everything within walking distance, Staff friendly . This the second visit while working in skegness. And will be back in near future. Its good for me .
