Some of which are old fashioned but it forms part of the character of the place.The rooms each have an individual character and are relaxing. The staff here are always welcoming and friendly.Always feel like you can be sure of a nice relaxing break.It has... More

I had forgotten quite how horrible the smell of stale cigarette smoke is. Our room reeked of it! Then just to add insult to injury the on site Mexican restaurant left the kitchen door open all evening so the corridors were full of the stench of fried food! Horrible! The apartment itself was roomy with nice sea views but the... More

If you are looking for a cheap hotel that is clean, with friendly staff and large rooms, then look no further. Don't let the outside of this hotel put you off, inside everything is as you would want, clean and comfortable. OK this is not a swanky new hotel, but you aren't paying hundreds of pounds a night either. We... More

2nd stay at The Villa Esplanade and for the price we payed (£20 per night) you cannot go wrong. I wouldn't want to spend a weeks holiday here but as a room to crash for a couple of nights, you can't go wrong. Saying this though, looking at some of the other photos on Trip Advisor, some of the rooms... More

We had a. Most regrettable experience staying at this establishment to gain access to out rooms we had to pass through a corrider whic firemed part of the kitchen the rooms were not clean and very noisy and smelled from the coking in the Mexican Restaurant. I would hoghly reccomend avoiding this establishment.
