The Waves Hotel

The room was fantastic, it was clean and tidy. The bathroom was slightly smaller than normal but this was due to us booking a standard room. We enjoyed our stay. The room had tea and coffee facilities and because of the area it was quiet which was a positive because we could sleep. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Okay stay, not the warmest or friendliest of hosts. Area felt a bit dodgy with some shouting etc outside, I guess not much anyone can do about that. No where to hang clothes in the room, bedside light but no where to plug it in, world's smallest towel. Room okay for one night's stay, priced appropriately. Location not too far from Train/Bus Station and easy walking distance to shops/restaurants/beach. Probably would not stay again.

This property is not fit for purpose. For £80 a night I expect more. The host was non existent. The stair carpet was filthy. The bedroom had a small double with iffy bedding and no facilities to hang clothes. DO NOT BOOK THIS ‘HOTEL’

The whole hotel needs a good spruce up! Bed was a very cheap mattress, lumpy old pillows and apparently clean bedding that was covered in other peoples hair. I went and brought new pillows and cover as i couldnt bare to sleep on them. Stains on the headboard. Room was very dusty. Door did not lock or unlock properly. It took me 10mins to get in my room.

Where do I start. The cleaner hadn’t been so the room had dirt everywhere. The owner had another job ‘down the road’ so was unavailable to complain too. We would of moved to another hotel but it was too late in the day to wander round skeggy after 100 mile bike ride. And how would I get a refund as the owner was ‘down the road’ Truly awful experience .

Disaster.

No reception during stated normal checkin times. Help yourself with key left in room. Dirty sheets, had to ask for clean ones, not much better. Bedside lamp & kettle not working. Cause found to be smashed extension lead plug with live wires exposed next to bed. Room not vacuumed Had to change to another room. Better but not made up so had to vacuum ourselves and take towels, tea coffee etc. from other room. Hotels.com photos very deceptive. Looks modern but photos must have been taken many years ago as reality is very dated.
