It was okay for a short cheap stay. However, it was not very clean, or looked like the pictures and it was extremely small. There was no staff, so it was easy to check in/out.

I wouldn't leave booking a room till the last minute ever again, especially during the busiest bank holiday weekend - so this wasn't great value, in the basement with people looking in while walking past, and smelling rather damp. However, the location is very convenient, the room was clean and the staff pleasant and helpful.

This property was a 10 min walk to the beach which was great. When we got into the room there was a leaflet which told us the wifi and amenities around. There was a double bed made the only thing I would suggest is more pillows there was only two but this would depend on people’s preferences. Other than that we enjoyed our stay.

Not bad
On arrival, i needed a parking permit so i called the number on front door, the men were kind and helpful. The room was very basic and could do with a deep clean but done the job. Thank you 😊 not a bad review.

The TV is too small. You have a cooker that doesn’t work without pots or pans.

It feels safe and has good working facilities but the dumpsters right out the front make the street really dirty. Only a 20 minute walk from the train station and close to the beach and a nice walk to the lanes and town centre. I would say that the rooms are very minimalist and don’t look much like the pictures but they have everything you would need for a weekend stay.

Last minute trip to Brighton
This was my first solo trip away so I was hoping everything would be smooth and stress free, which it was. The hotel is faceless (didn’t see any staff on site) and keyless meaning you check yourself in with a code and email them when you check out, to be honest suited me and no issues. I was very impressed with the room as a whole (Room 3, double with partial sea view). It wasn’t the cleanest but I was prepared for that due to viewing previous reviews, nothing terrible and as I was there for one night so not an issue. Wasn’t too noisy and about a 5-8 min walk to Brighton pier. It had a mini kitchen including microwave, fridge and mini hob- if your planning to cook there it’s just plates and cutlery, no pans or pots. I would stay again for a short stay 👍

A really nicely set out room with a sofa. Helpful staff. What I would suggest is a more through clean. There was dust on the kitchen shelves. The spong supplied to wash items in the kitchenette was used and dirty and there was bits and dental floss under the bed. If the cleaning was more substantial it would have been 5 stars.

1. Whilst my wife was in bed and having a snack, the window was open due to the hot weather and a strange man stood outside looking at her as she sat half dressed and kept looking at her, this made her unsafe and terrified. 2. When I arrived, my access code did not work on the first try, I kept trying and trying and didn’t work, had to wait for assistance after a long day travelling. Poor poor

Cheap yes but it was nightmarish
The hotel was very dingy from the moment i walked in. The stairs look like they're near collapse and stains all over an old. Brown carpet which in some places needed to be patched up. The seagiew duluxe room was a shame because yes while you did have semi sea view you had rotten wooden windows which wouldnt really open and when it dod the room accumulated flies instantly where i was looking round tryong to find a dead body. Turns out the flies where keen on the kitchenette because nothing was clean and there were splattering all over the microwave. It had a musty smell and the bathroom had dirty floors, mould on the walls and a dark stain in the bath tub. I didnt walk round without sliders because i was worried about catching something. Its cheaper than other places yes but for what i paid i expected a little better. The bed was okay but the thinnest feather pillows ever, a stained mustard coloured throw. Also there was a white stain on the sofa which was pretty suspect. The room felt like it was on the verge of collapse because there was an obvious slant into the room. Would not come back
