A pleasurable stay. The room was clean and well presented.
The queen bed was very low and quite sunken in as I nearly fell off the bed in my sleep. New mattress’s to be placed and full 5 stars would be given.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Unfortunately I had very bad stay in this hotel. First, my booking was for 3 adults. We received 1 single bed and 1 bed and half where slept 6 night 2 big person. Terrible! After I ask for towel.Had only 3 bath towels. After agein ask for coffee, tea, sugar - boxes was empty in room. No one come to clean our room 6 days! Room become dirty and dusty. I have allergic asthma and this dust make me big issue. I was emergency in hospital. I spoke with manager about this and I had request to refund part of my money. He told me that will speak with team and will talk with me. Until now no one contact me. By Expedia today I understand that hotel don't want to refund some money for service who no one did.
Never I had bad experience like in this hotel.
Beds was uncomfortable and we don't rest. So Sea Shell hotel completely destroyed our holiday!

The hotel is in need of updating but it was ok for what we needed. the only real big thing was that the lift was not working and we were in the 3rd floor with a toddler. The staff were very friendly when there
Hotel room was nice size but a bit undated couldn’t of done with a clean here and there bathroom shower try was painted and bits coming of shower was very dirty around it all could not flush toilet properly has handle hits the wall it was ok for a one night stay room did not look like in photos when we booked
When i arrived i was shown to an unacceptable room with a blind stuck into the open window .the sink looked not particularly clean & the room smelt unpleasant.
However ,to be fair to the staff ,when i complained i was given a much better ,clean room with a functioning window and curtains.
I was travelling to visit my brother who us in hospital. I am just disappointed that i was not initially considered Deserving of a Decent room .

Liked: Staff & service
The hotel is old and very basic. The shower is very weak which takes time for bath. Toilet flushing is weak and the water replenish is very very slow that it may take 2-3 times to clear up the waste.
The credit is they provide tooth brush, slippers, shampoo and shower gel that a bit surprise. Location is good, just few minutes to the bus station for journey to Seaford or Brighton. Staff are nice and friendly.
Absolutely discussed after being treated so badly at one of the worst places iv stayed.
No tv remote, and asked twice to be ignored
Dirty sheet on bed. Someones old tissues left used.
We work nights so as we was talking got a knock on the door and told to be quiet.
2 mins later another knock and asked to leave. It was 3am. No arguments i was out of there. Never sgain.
Extremely dirty, tired, stunk of cigarettes and staff not up to running a hotel. Mattress had collapsed by just pressing on it and was stained. Don’t let the professional stock photos fool you.
Great location 5-10 mins walk to most parts of town for shops restaurants and bars. Excellent service on arrival. Room surprisingly big for what it costs to stay here.
The staff had been clearing the adjacent room and left everything in the corridor blocking access to my room. This is a tripping hazard and in the event of a fire a serious risk to safety.
in general very good, arrived very early but that was not a problem as my room was ready. was given key and car park permit, that was very helpful. pity lift was brocken as i was 2 floors up. very space room for a single. will came again
