Seaford Guest House XXX

The room was great, nice and spacious bathroom was lovely, double bed was a little hard for my preference however it was warm clean and great value for money.

The parking situation was a little rubbish although out of hosts control there is parking in a nearby park and price was cheap for all night parking.

The photos don't do it justice - the room is huge! A double bed, two singles, a couch and coffee table and two desks, lots of closet space and a large bathroom with bath and shower (though shower was in renovation during our stay). It was clean and comfortable, bar a few carpet stains, but reserve the singles for kids as the mattresses are really too squishy for adults. You can cook/heat up food in the kitchen which has basic plates, mugs, cutlery etc. The area is generally OK, not a lot of choice to eat out around (mostly kebab type food) , but it was near the Uni campus which was the reason for our visit.

Not for anyone with any kind of mobility issue as the stairs to first floor are extremely steep. There is no off-road parking at this property - on street parking for free on the opposite side of the road if you can get it and they didn't have a resident permit for the other side. No kettle and tea/coffee in the room - you find all that in the downstairs kitchen but it's a big challenge trying to climb those stairs with a full mug (and the spill stains on the carpet are testament to that!).

Room very spacious and airy. Bathroom was superb. Storage was really good. Having access to a kitchen was ideal for our daughter who isn't keen on eating out and only wanted toast for dinner. A few nice cafes and fast food restaurants nearby. Easy walk to train station (just make sure you come out the correct exit on arrival at Stoke or you'll have a slightly longer walk, but still not a big deal).

Carpets a bit stained / with cigarette burns - but not dirty as such. Stairs were steep but that was ok.

It came to our rescue

Lack of kitchen utensils
