The Sandbanks

Very good location.

Kitchen was not open but it was out of season. There was a lot of noise from other rooms.

The view and the staff.

Access for wheelchair users.

Good location and view was lovely. Peaceful until someone slammed a door at 4am

Bathroom needs updating very outdated and falling apart in some places

The location is the only good thing I can say.

The room we booked was not the room we got, we had to go and ask for toilet paper as there was none in the room. Will not be booking there again.

The location was ideal for my trip, the room and bed were comfortable and the whole thing was good value for money. The room was very warm which is important for me as I'm always cold and it was toasty in there so that was good

The shower unfortunately was a trickle of boiling hot water that I could not fix by fiddling with the dials. This was disappointing as I was there to drum on the beach with Batala Bermo so was looking forward to a nice warm shower afterwards.

Good location, clean.

Noisy corridors at night. Room needed some upgrading, bedside light had no plug socket, had to trail lead across floor to a plug socket and put on floor to use. Sealant around bath looked discoloured/mouldy in patches. Shower was warm but not hot. Mirror was unframed and just propped up loose on a cabinet.

Great location and great price

It was on the beach front, that was nice.

Upon arrival we were quickly told everything was unavailable due to it being out of season, which is fine and understandable. However, we were also not told important information about the hotel like if the bar was open or if we could use the games room: both seemed to be open but we guessed were just for mates of the owners, so we just made our way into town which is close by. We had to figure out for ourselves things like wifi and how to adjust the heating, which again is fine but also made us feel a tad unwelcome. Also the room was unbearably hot for much of the night and we only figured out that we could turn down the radiators in the early morning, so again it would have been good for basic information to have been provided. We were also told not to use the car park at the rear of the hotel and to park on the street which I ignored because it was empty. The single beds were not standard size singles and are not suitable for adults - had we known this we would have booked elsewhere. They also asked for information like my nationality and passport number upon checking in, which I refused to provide because it seemed a bit dodgy.
