Fab location from train station/shops/park/beach
Apartment is roomy (booked 2 bedroom - 1 double bed and 2nd bedroom 1 single bed).
The proprietor was extremely helpful as its keypad opening on rooms and push button key code to enter building.
There is no lift but he took my case up to my room for me.
Only little negative is there is no toaster and no dustpan and brush to clean up (especially if you have spent time at the beach and/or you have children/grandchildten)
I would definitely recommend and will definitely stop here again.
The lady who owned the hotel made us uncomfortable by insisting on coming into the room with us upon arrival even after I said it’s not my first stay, and when it came to check out knocked on the door 45 mins before checkout to remind us what time checkout was and making sure we were checking out then. Really confusing service and felt like we weren’t being treated fairly; as it wasn’t like that last time I stayed and i don’t think I’ll come back, cheaper rooms with far less hassle are available.
Although the room was clean and warm it was nothing like the ads. The room was small, the door had no spy hole and the bathroom door opened outwards.
The bar had very unusual closing times, if it was quiet it would close at 10.00pm instead of the adverts 11.00pm, even for residents.
Everything is great at The Monsell Hotel.
We enjoyed the peaceful & quiet stay.
Maybe & hopefully the check out time can be amended to 12 noon if it is possible.
Good luck & thank you.
Regards,
Harry
