Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Pictures looked nice we just needed a one night stay. We booked through hotels.com and had receipts and confirmation. We had a call an hour later from the hotel saying we have not paid and need to pay again, they said we needed to go there and pay them manually, the receptionist was very rude on the phone. After sending all receipts to them they said they would send code to get into the hotel (as self checkin). We we arrived at 8pm we had no code. We spent 45 minutes outside the hotel ringing/ texting the numbers provided to get our code to enter the hotel. Nothing. After 50 minutes another resident turned up who let us into the corridor, he managed to get hold of the owner for us and gave us our codes. We still received nothing from her. When we got into the room it was filthy. Dirt on absolutely everywall and skirting boards. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. We’ve still not had any form of contact from the owner and when hotels.com spoke to her she told them we was met by the receptionist after waiting 45minutes (it was another resident).

The beds so uncomfortable to asleep on. Bedsheets wasn’t clean. I had ridiculous noise levels during the night which caused lots of unpleasant noise my children can’t falling asleep well.

Ok for the money

Friendly welcome and very easy to check in and access the property. our particular room was very run down decor wise even for the cheap price that we paid. If your looking for a bed for the night then great but if it’s nice accommodation that your looking for then this isn’t the one .

Not impressed

Carpet had stains, tv remote had chewing gum stuck to it and was greasy, bed sheets were clean but that was about it. Overall stay was quite uncomfortable to be honest but convieniant to the city centre.

Housekeeping took all my heart and diabetes drugs, clothes, and electrical items. I have tried to get hotel to return them, but they haven not. I booked and paid for two nights, yet they emptied my room after one night. Appalling lack of communication and no concern. Had to text as no-one on site.. I will now consider contacting the pilice.

Paid for arriving early. But still wasn’t let in. Message the office no response. Saw staff entered property so then was able to talk to her. If o hadn’t of seen her I sure I wouldn’t have be able to stay. The room Hadn’t been cleaned from previous visitors. Room in very poor and dangerous conditions. Bathroom cabinet door was not being held by any screw. Which then led to the cabinet door, falling onto my 11-year-old son’s head now has a cut was bleeding. Told the reception lady sitting in the hallway. She was very blunt. Came into the room and just took the cabinet. No apology nothing! Maybe she was having a bad day. I would rather stay in my car. Honestly waste of every penny.

My one night stay

I recently stayed at X Hotel in Brighton, and while there were some initial issues with both rooms, the team was incredibly helpful and proactive in resolving them. They upgraded me to a fantastic suite and went above and beyond to ensure my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. The staff’s professionalism and commitment to excellent customer service really stood out, and I truly appreciate their efforts. Thank you for turning things around so quickly—I would happily stay here again! Let me know if you’d like further changes!
