I stayed at the Langford Hotel for one night and, honestly, couldn't wait to check out the next morning.
I booked a single room (507, second floor). As I walked upstairs, I immediately noticed how warm the hotel was and how dirty the carpets looked. The room itself was also extremely hot. Thankfully, I could open the window and there was a fan, but when I placed it on the bedside cabinet, I noticed the cupboard door was hanging off. There was also what appeared to be a hole in the wall, making the room feel poorly maintained.
The bathroom was tiny and the shower was incredibly claustrophobic. The shower itself was the worst part of the stay. The water was mostly freezing cold, but when the hot water did kick in, it became scalding hot with no warning. Combined with the very poor water pressure, it made showering and washing my hair frustrating and uncomfortable. There was also no plug in the sink.
After my shower, I used the smaller towel to mop up the water on the floor. When I picked it up, it was black underneath, showing just how dirty the bathroom floor was.
For £130 a night, I wasn't expecting luxury, especially given the hotel's location within walking distance of the seafront. However, there's a big difference between basic and dirty. The lack of cleanliness, poor maintenance and unusable shower made this a very disappointing stay.
I would not recommend this hotel.
