Booking the hotel on bookings.com after reading the reviews on trip advisor. It certainly lived up to our expectations. All the staff very friendly and our room had a great view of the pier and most important the sea. Definitely worth a return visit. Excellent value for money.

For £30/night you can't expect a lot. Small room in a nice location. Breakfast was average but with very limited time (8-9 am). The service was good and everything was clean.

We stayed at the Afton for a weekend in Eastbourne and very much enjoyed our stay. The room was fine, smallish but not unduly so and the bed was comfortable. The staff were friendly and the Afton represented very good value for money: recommended.

Stayed at this hotel over the Easter as part of a Coach Holiday - central location by the Pier. Entertainment every night. Good food and outstanding service. Would definately return and would recommend.
