"Our room felt like it had been renovated recently and looked really nice. The bedroom was very large and offered a sea view which was great. The bedding was very comfy. The staff was helpful when we needed and the amenities (swimming pool/sauna/steamroom) were great and easy to book to avoid crowding. We very much enjoyed our stay and to top it up the location was great meters from the beach, in between Brighton city centre and Hove, close to the i360. Great place ! We recommend"
