Penilaian & Ulasan Keseluruhan The Southcliff Hotel

Everthing

Overnight stay only. Extremely dated and room and bathroom needed major update. Bed however was comfortable

The worst hotel I have ever stayed in. The room was dirty with stained carpets, clumps of hair on the floor. The toilet was cracked and did not flush properly the bath was stained, there was no hot water. The Staff were borderline surly at best. We had to request towels which we then had to take up to the room ourselves The hotel provided no food due to renovations which were not flagged on Expedia nor by the hotel st the time of booking. If an hotel is being renovated you have an obligation to warn potential customers before taking their money. This is VERY POOR by Expedia

Good Points - Very comfy and large bed. Friendly staff and very quiet. Very cool retro lift which was a highlight. Small bar with decent pool table. Bad Points- Greeted with a £30 damage deposit request on arrival which you get back once the cleaner has inspected your room. Makes you feel like your untrusted and dodgy. Website states parking yet this is basic on street pay and display parking away from hotel. Whole hotel is like stepping back in time. In need of major refurb. Bar was lacking alcohol, lights for pool table illuminating the floor next to the table. No partition on balcony so couldn't leave door open over night, no windows for fresh air. Door to room would not lock, had to prop a chair behind door.

First impression, outside looked scruffy and seedy. What appeared to be a homeless person on a mobility scooter in the reception doorway, shouting. Receptionist was friendly and check in was efficient. Inside hotel was scruffy, dated, dark and seedy. Room was the same. Beds were clean and thank god white sheets which were clean. Bathroom absolutely horrendous. Old bits of scruffy wood panelling, half a cupboard of sorts. Just awful.

The area, or the clientele at least, was very sketchy. The water was an orange/brown when I first turned on the faucet. I did not feel safe to leave my car on the street or drink the water… which is all you need to know. The hotel is very dated and lacks AC.

Excellent location and great value for the price paid. Old building but very tidy and polite and friendly staff. Lovely sea view from the window and room was very spacious.

As a well travelled couple both in the uk and abroad this has to be the worst hotel i have ever stayed in. No heating, discarded tissues in the room, an unfriendly receptionist, no free parking as stated, water stains on the ceiling worse than the titanic, the shower wouldnt give a sparrow a good wash and completely run down. Makes fawlty towers look like a luxury resort.

Was unablento have a shower as the water drbbled out out the shower head, really disappointing

Friendly helpful staff. No breakfast available as yet, but guided to alternatives. Needs sweetners in the room for diabetics (coffeee/tea) Would stay again for business meetings

Lady very helpful, pity the property is somewhat needing attention. Considering a lot of homeless people are currently living there which is great for them and the property but is not necessarily conducive for travellers.

Simple, but clean hotel at very reasonable price. Excellent location.

Unfortunately we have experienced a cold water so then the day after hot water so we could not have a shower at all.

Very nice place for this price !!

Sadly this old hotel has not been restored to it former glory. It has had a refit to the interior.,the exterior is extremely run down. Our welcoming committee & they were. Was a set of long term residents seated outside a keypad locked reception door. Very sadly too as they openly shared with me. They were being housed in the hotel having fallen on hard times. (They were not asylum seekers) We paid a budget price so our expectations were not high. However the price paid was excessive. Given that this property is currently really a hostel. It is Not conducive at all with an overnight relaxing trip.

Hotel room was clean, tidy and fresh looking. Rest of hotel looking its age and out dated. Took over half hour to locat a free parking spot in surrounding street

need to add parking space not as self parking

Original

Don’t let your initial vision put you off, the hotel looks very run down but is very clean and comfortable. We had a sea view which was nice however it also means you have the hotel front lighting shining through the curtains which isn’t ideal. We would stay again with more limited expectations.

Friendly staff, clean room, very comfy bed. The outside looks delapidated and carpets in the passageways are old and a bit grubby. The lift was small and the lift doors could do with painting. The signage could do with updating. They are obviously trying to upgrade everything but the room could have had a new lampshade on the room light and pull string in the bathroom. The room wall table could do with a paint or restaining. The wardrobe internal shelf should be painted.
