Disliked: Cleanliness
Hotel was basic and tidy and reasonably priced. However, it is in need of modernisation and the cleanliness could be better. For example, I had to clean the light switch after entering the room. They have also just opened the swimming pool which is a bonus and a basic breakfast is included.

Ignore the bad reviews. This is the second year running I’ve came here with my children. The hotel is clean and the staff are really polite and helpful it’s cheaper than the other hotels in the area as it’s being refurbished the rooms are decent and lovely views if you get a sea room.

Only nice thing was the view from the room window. Didnt get any sleep due to noisey residents partying until atleast 4am. Hotel desperately needing refurbishing depressive downstairs reception and dining areas. Website very misleading with facilities as there was no bar and no parking This hotel should be closed down as definitely not fit for purpose

It was cheap as chips, which is why I booked it. But the room was dingy. Lots of areas badly in need of maintenance and the icing on the cake was a badly chipped mug provided to make coffee.

Been to this hotel before it was lovely new owners now arrived was told I needed photo ID if I didn’t have it I had to pay £100 deposit they charge you £10 for parking you can park out on the road for free plenty of space my bathroom has mould door not painted properly Toilet roll hanging off wall curtains with filthy sideboard was stained and scratched up. Need a good clean and new furniture. Must say bedding was very clean comfortable bed had a beautiful view from balcony. As long as you know, it’s a budget hotel you’ll be okay don’t expect the Ritz.

I booked a room for a one night stay on Torquay, as i was travelling from Reading to pick my partner up in Paignton. I was going to leave about 7, after work, to get there for approx 11pm. I rang and made sure i could get in. i was told that if i got there after 10pm, i would be charged an additional £15 late check in fee. I have never heard that before in my life. Suffice to say, i didn't use the room and travelled down in the morning. maybe these things exist, but i've never heard anything so stupid in all my hotel staying days.

Awful! No running cold water in room, couldn't flush toilet, kettle was disgusting so couldn't use, no cups,no soap. Poor cleanliness. TV okay, bed comfy, clean bedding and towels. Parking advertised but be warned there is a £10 charge per night which I found out on arrival and didn't see mentioned on website.

Hotel is very old, there is renovation going inside so its mess and dirt everywhere. Think they should close it for now. Room was ok to sleep- nothing else. Kettle and 2 cups provided- no tea coffee etc. Its also not clearly stated but they charge £10 extra for parking per night which is quite expensive. We won't be back anytime soon.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Honestly the most bizarre hotel I have ever stayed in. There are no facilities. You couldn’t even boy a soft drink. There was no toilet we could use before we checked in. The huge sign outside says Diamond Hotel. It was a mixture of a ghost town with unused communal rooms and a rough hostel with a welcoming of a fight happening. There were empty cans of cider on the side downstairs. In our room we had to wedge the window open with a towel and in the bathroom we had to do the same with a toilet roll, both to provide air and to try and get rid of whatever the smell was. There was extremely loud banging of doors throughout the night. We were in a triple room and we had two cups. Honestly, I have never experienced anything like it.

The hotel is a lovely place, the staff was friendly and very helpful. On the days when we stayed the unique bad things we encountered were noise guesses in the room next door, so we couldn't really rest as we expected but apart from that attention at the hotel in great!
