Room was fine, good for the rate we paid. Hotel lobby smelled terribly of fish but our room did not smell and the hotel was within walking distance to the Southampton port where we caught our cruise ship

Once a good hotel trying to do its best, with cleanliness being the biggest weakness. The chargeable car park is shared with 3 hotels and prepaid parking is based on first come first served.
