8/10
We booked a family room for family of 3, the room was super spacious, nice sea view (slightly far), comfortable beds. Bathroom were renovated but not modern but good size. Location was excellent and very lively throughout the day and night. Great pub right next to it. Main market was 2 mins walk, had good food options and other entertainment options. Ryde Ferry Terminal is literally opposite to hotel and a train station which runs island wide. Only downside was hot summer as the hotel did not have air-conditioning, provided small table fans but they weren't sufficient so it was pretty hot.
Breakfast was okay with typical British menu, limited options with limited 2 hours in morning.
Check in was smooth and the lady was very polite and kind to let us choose the best room we liked in the booked category. Staff was very polite and courteous, except a few who were strictly abide by policies to not allow a little extra time for checkout and placed a charge for taking an extra hour despite having no future bookings in place. Check in and out timings are curtailed by an hour i.e. 4 pm and 10 am which is not usual.
They have a small car park, which needs to be booked in advance for GBP 5 overnight, subject to availability. However there are plenty of off road parking available right outside of the hotel.
Overall I would rate it as a good stay and would recommend looking at the Pros over Cons.
