Lovely sea views from lounge, and short walk from rail station and Torbay buses. Pleasant walk to town along sea front. Staff respond quickly to comments and requests and breakfast pleasant, Clean but definitely low budget room as price indicates - basic small single with noisy floor, and creaky bed against boiling hot radiator. Window opens. Sounds carry through rooms... More

On arrival the gentleman at reception was not very welcoming and quite surly. The bedroom was tiny, obviously one room made into two, so was very crammed and very dusty. The bathroom had been updated but had toothpaste marks on the sink and taps. The bar resembles a dentists waiting room, with a few chairs linned up against the wall,... More

We had two nights here - bed and breakfast. The room was clean but we could hear all sorts of noises from adjoining rooms. Woke up on the second morning to someone snoring. When we arrived the man on reception was surly to the point of rudeness. We asked for a drink later that evening and he made it clear... More
