It was really modern and clean inside; shared kitchen area with fridge, freezer, microwave, and free tea and coffee, which was great. Our room was quite hot as it was on the top floor, but when we asked, they brought up a fan, which was great and solved the problem. Friendly and helpful staff. Great location for the beach with bar and restaurants very close by.

We were lucky to get this double room on the weekend of Victorious festival and the room and amenities were clean. However the bathroom on the top floor that is one shared between 5 rooms didn't have toilet roll by 5am and wasn't refilled by 9am and the shower gel had run out. So I would recommend this hotel if you bring your own toilet roll, shower gel and flip flops for the bathroom. The staff on reception were friendly and kept in touch. We purchased a £2.50 permit but still couldn't park due to the festival so had to drop off bags and park further in to southsea - final thoughts, it did the job and served its purpose.

Receptionist area is not manned on a regular or scheduled basis.Although I think receptionist should be there from check in at 2pm up till 11pm as was indicated by hotel,the area was either closed or no1 inside regularly during those hours and even check out hours at 11 am no one was there.I didnt like that at all.Cant be running a hotel and someone isnt around to be called upon.
