My room (no 3) had been totally renovated and was spotlessly clean. The evening meal at the hotel restaurant was also very satisfactory and good value for money. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. I will definitely be staying there again and would not hesitate to recommend to others.
Good Hotel. Adequate shower. Lovely building structure, dining, garden and bar area. Adorable Vintage Decor and interiors. Excellent Food Menu. Reasonable pricing.
Ive stayed here quite a few times now if you want a clean quiet comfy room with a good hot shower friendly staff in a good location at a fair price this is the place for you cheers guys see you soon

Clean and comfortable rooms, basic but real value for money. very friendly hosts, we will be staying again
Had a great stay here. Bonus was the entertainer in the bar area (Jules). Comfy sitting areas around hotel. Bed and pillows comfy with good hot water in shower. Staff were also excellent and very helpful.

Clean tidy room, friendly staff did not use bar or parking
Cannot speak highly enough about this hotel, it may not look as grands as some but that is made up for by the friendly and helpful staff, the quality of the food and the general good feeling you get staying there
Clean and comfortable, it made us feel at home even if only for one night. Many thanks to the gentleman at the reception who, despite being tired, kindly waited for us until the very last moment late at night to check us in.
The hotel is dated but the staff were friendly on arrival and during breakfast.
The room was clean, just dated. Bed a bit soft but difficult to please everyone.
Great location and a short walk to the beach.
Breakfast was adequate and the lady who served us was super helpful as we had a young child with us.

Nice and friendly.
Nice hotel with friendly staff and good service. Maybe the exterior could do with a lick of paint, but overall I had no problems and would definately recommend.
It was a comfortable stay however the bed had wheels and it was moving a lot. Thw wifi is terribly slow and weak from the rooms.
We stayed for one night, other than, it was a comfortable stay
Poor quality of the room, smell not good (old odour)

I stayed two nights and can’t complain about anything. I knew it was a low budget hotel and couldn’t expect luxuries.
However, it was clean, nice bedding, my room was very quiet. Decent shower. I didn’t need anything more than this.
A very special shout out to all members of staff who serve breakfast. They are very friendly, and work tirelessly. I’ve never been served so quickly anywhere else! Sadly I don’t know the names, but there is a fantastic lady who worked this weekend and a young man as well. Thank you!!
One more thing, the coffee is really nice as well as the full English breakfast.
Staff were very helpful and friendly
Had a couple of problems with the tv aerial and curtain rail collapsing and curtains falling off but James sorted it out for me.
I really enjoyed staying there and I will recommended it too to anyone visiting the beautiful Shanklin town.
And service from Expedia too much better than rip off booking. Com
Thank you
Jerome
Comfortable room near beach and own free car parking facilities I am happy with my choice of Hotel booked. In the evening I relaxed with live music at cosy bar.
