My daughter and I loved The Old Ship Hotel. The location was perfect, the beach is just over the road, the Pier was a few minutes walk away and the shops are basically just round the corner. Our room (a twin room) was bigger than I expected. Tea and coffee with a kettle was great as I was gasping for a cuppa when we arrived. They even supplied ear plugs because it can be a little bit noisey at night (this was mainly from the large hotel opposite). Quite a large bathroom, with a bath and shower, and complimentary shower gel, shampoo and soap. The room was clean and no dodgy smells. There was a fan, but we didn't need it, the partially open window was enough. We didn't ask for a room with a sea view, but it could be seen if you looked to the right. We were on the 3rd floor and there is nothing wrong with the lift (ignore other reviews). Breakfast was great, a decent selection to suit everyone. We had dinner in the hotel restaurant one night; it was amazing! A decent price too. There was loads of seating on the ground floor. The bar was great too. We needed to store our luggage before and after and it was stored securely, with a numbered tag, only staff could access it (unlike a different hotel nearby that simply left your luggage near the reception desk for anyone to access). Considering the low price we paid, the hotel truly was amazing. Lovely staff, clean everywhere, big rooms, great food, fantastic location, what more could you ask for! I will be booking again next year. My mum could easily come with us, she uses a walker, and the hotel would definitely be suitable for a less able person.
