Tried to post review earlier but I’m guessing dishonest owner had it removed? Basically , advise to steer well clear of this terribly dated establishment especially whilst the current owner is in place . Booked a 1 night stay ( thankfully) and I have to say the place is terribly outdated and appears not a penny has been spent on improving or refurbishing for many a year . Owner saw fit to charge an additional £10.50 extra for an inch thick inedible Pancake at breakfast time even though it’s listed as an option along with cereal. This charge was made without my permission or any consultation and the owner should hang his head in shame for doing so . There are many other better establishments throughout the Paignton area please give this one a wide berth !
