The room had a kitchen extract running within the floor below and it was incredibly noisy. Creaking plumbing and slamming doors. Needs building mechanics upgrading

Very spacious and comfortable room. Good choice of tasty breakfasts. Customer service needs improvement, e.g. when I politely asked a member of staff to remove Christmas decorations from a staircase handrail, explaining that I needed to use the handrail because of poor eyesight, a day later (when we departed), this had not been actioned.

Stay at the ship
The room was fine except the bathroom sink light didn't work which I reported but they did nothing. Dinner was OK but service VERY brusque and eating elsewhere in Rye much better. Had the cheek to add 10%for service As for breakfasts then abysmal ! NO cereals and poached eggs on a bun - little choice and VERY expensive for anyone visiting - better to breakfast elsewhere -they are clearly not interested.

Worth a visit
Staff were very welcoming and the room and breakfast were very good. Unfortunately it was very hot and the room at the top of the hotel was very uncomfortable in spite of all the efforts of the staff to improve matters
