Actual picture of horizon
Hi, I’ve faced the worst ever experience in my entire life while staying here. I booked the room before 3 hours of arrival. It was very difficult to find the location. There was no sign or anything outside. Not even door number. I reached there and they didn’t let me in even after i show all my booking details and id. I stayed outside in cold for almost 1 hour for them to verify my booking. Even after i showed my booking they were very rude to us. They told us they cant let me in and give room. Then after i got the help from hotels.com assistance i got a chance to let inside. I don’t know whether after all these issues they gave me the worst room to me. Right after seeing the room i left the property. Let this not happen to anyone again Thanks

No value for money
Reception staff was friendly and helpful. The room was disappointing- no heating (it was 10 degrees outside) and no extra blanket in the room, the bedside lamps didn't work and there was only a few coat hangers on a rail to store clothes. On the plus side, the reception staff gave me an electronic heater after i complained and the view on the pier was suberb. Disappointing for the price!!

It was the cheapest option that’s why we chose it. It was grim, there was barely any toilet roll for us and nobody at reception to ask for more. Really dirty and mouldy bathroom, with the sink in the bedroom which was odd. Window wouldn’t shut so room was freezing, had to lay towels over the duvet to try and warm up. Tv didn’t work. Hallways stunk of weed which seeped into the room. Also they wanted to charge £25 if you arrive after 8:30pm which is insane! That was half the price of the room. Just do yourself a favour and don’t stay here lol

Avoid!
Disgrace of a hotel. Will not go back, bathroom had mould in the shower windows broken & boarded up with wood. The pictures on the advertisement is not what you get they look like were taken from a different hotel. Rooms smelt of smoke. Gaps in walls & doors which made it very cold at night. Over our 3 night stay no house keeping was done to empty bins fresh towels etc. Room was very dirty & staff didn’t really care.

The property was terrible. The room did not look like any of the pictures. Upon arrival, there was a pile of dirty towels and laundry in my room, and i had no clean towels or toilet roll. The bathroom stank and had mould. After discussing with the receptionist, they took the dirty laundry and gave me a fresh towel, but no toilet roll. The cups, kettle and teaspoons were also dirty. There was no heating, and the window would not fully close, so was very could. Also, the duvet was very thin. The hallways were very thin and most of the flooring/stairs/doors were very creaky. The walls were very thin and i could consistently hear people throughout the nights. The room was not cleaned at all during my 3 night stay. I was charged to leave my luggage for a few hours on the day of check out. Location and wifi were decent.

Wouldn’t bother again
Room was the cheapest option around that wasn’t a hostel so we went for it, but was still expensive for what it was. £115 for one night but the room was really run down. It’s opposite a park too which is loud at night as it seems groups of men sit drinking on the benches. Ceiling was wallpapered which was odd. The toilet seat was too small for the bowl and wasn’t fastened on properly which wasn’t great. Chairs were really stained. Walls had stickers from previous guests clothing. Hallway was really loud when wind blew or other guests shut their doors (would make your door rattle). Parking around there is an absolute nightmare too
