It was a lovely location for us, near the Altavia with friends, and the sea and the bus stop. We had a spacious bedroom.
Didn't like the staff, some of them were highly unprofessional.

We were there for an overnight stay and this hotel was quaint and original. The food was gorgeous - a wide range of options. Got the same neat king room with seaview booked online, loved that. The staff was amiable providing assistance. The location was excellent and ideal for traveling around Sandown, next to lovely beach and good shopping and bus service, a large patio, and the garden. Besides, Isle of Wight Zoo was 2 km away from the venue.

Make sure you stay in the guest room with seaview. The location is magnificent and perfect, within a close distance from Sandown Pier. And the area is quiet adjacent to beach shops and pier, the altavia on the off chance and the sea and the bus stop.
