We found a 5 inch black spider on the wall above the bed and took pictures. Absolutely disgusting. My wife and I complained. We asked for a refund for the remaining day because we didn't want to stay there any longer, of course. We were denied a refund but were offered another room, which we promptly refused. It completely ruined our weekend, as you can imagine. Be careful and good luck.

The Mayfair offers rooms from single bed up, at great rates which include parking, no 'frills' - pool spa etc.
My single room was clean and adequate, walking distance from seafront and local amenities.
I had a misfortune which caused me to call short my stay overnight, reception was closed.
The following day Expedia and the Hotel dealt with the issue quickly and made a refund, which they were not obliged to under the conditions.

The room we were given was terrible. The old furniture didn't match the pictures, and the carpet was very old and hadn't been vacuumed. The breakfast was poor, and we didn't even bother with dinner, We had breakfast and dinner outside. The Wi-Fi was unrulable and kept disconnecting every minute... The windows wouldn't even close, it was very noisy outside. The stairs were old and not well-maintained. We won't be coming here again.

Although the staff were friendly and welcoming the room was generally poor. The mattress was poorly sprung and uncomfortable to sleep on. The shower/bath tap mixer wasn’t working properly and ran mostly with spurts of warm water. The bath and sink had no blogs so we were unable to even bath! This soiled our weekend away. The room was definitely no worth the money. I would not be able to recommend this hotel to any one in all good conscience!

Suncliff hotel
Moved to Suncliff Hotel due to large party booking (wedding?)at Mayfair Hotel, so review is for Suncliff. Decor looking tired in places. 4th floor accommodation: bed very stiff and not comfortable. One roller blind was down halfway on arrival with broken/rusty chain laying on window sill, so unable to limit sunshine beaming through window at 06:30 in the morning. Stains on carpet around lounge area. Unable to give review to reception desk on checking out as understaffed and felt rushed through due to busy period (10:30).

Don't stay here
Hotel is tired and dated. Lift is not fit for purpose. Too many additional stairs and small corridors to negotiate. Paid 12.00 per night to park in carpark but still forced to park on grass verge as no room left. Bathroom dirty with hairs in bath, bedroom not much better

Disappointed but had a good night sleep
I was in room 6 and had meant to mention that the TV shelf looked like it had sweet and sour sauce splattered on it. The bath suite was a beige/green looking set - the shower was, however quite powerful and at a lovely temperature. The whole place looked like there had been attempts to update it (ground floor toilets and the bar area for example) but the furniture in the lounge and dining area were very dated. The night manager (at least he was on the desk) looked like he hadn’t washed his uniform, and had a mess on his trousers - this could have been due to something he did before we got there though. The lovely smiley lady on days, with brown hair and glasses was not only professional, but warm and friendly - a definite asset to your team. Overall the hotel is tired, the staff are all further on in their years and the feel was very old fashioned.

Don’t bother
The hotel was so noisy. The flooring creaked and so did the beds. You could hear everything someone did in the next bedroom. Staff were ignorant when you walked past them
