great location amazing view great owner shabby wall major refurbishment

i found a great location with many dining options nearby. the sea view from my room was amazing. the owner was great. he answered every question without hesitation.

i noticed the hotel is undergoing a major refurbishment. the outside looks awful with shabby peeling walls. it would be better if guests were forewarned and someone was at reception.

The hotel boasts private parking, so arrival was stress-free. my room offered a modern shower room, ensuring a fresh start each day. breakfast included hot, cooked options, a good way to begin. i also enjoyed a free pool table. The purple cloth added a touch of whimsy.

Though, it didn't greatly affect the peaceful experience.

great location clean room nice view run down look chipped paintwork gloomy decor

The location is close to the beach and Shanklin chine. The room was clean. The sea view from the room was nice.

The hotel seemed run down from the outside. The woodwork in the room had chipped paint. The decor felt dark and gloomy.
