Good as a base

The space was comfortable as a double for 1 person. I feel it might have been a little small if I'd had a companion but it worked well for just me. A good base to explore and good value for money. Personally I would have preferred a larger communal space in the hotel but this might not be a feature of properties locally...from the outside many seemed to be similarly set up. The staff were lovely and welcoming and the space was very clean.

Basic, value for price. Good breakfast and friendly staff. Was in another block away from hotel, that was a bit dated and with a rather musty smell. Room clean, basic. Dated TV with broken remote. Tea and coffee facilities in room, but kettle inexplicably on a very narrow shelf by the door, that is way too small and insecure for something potentially full of boiling water. This is an accident waiting to happen. Overall, value for money re price paid, and only really slept in room. Not a bad choice fora budget break in the lovely IOM Tho suggest some attention is needed to facilities in rooms.

Fantastic location, the place itself was incredible. The kitchen/living room was huge, very spacious, big windows so lots of light and very well equipped. Private and out of the way. Bedrooms and bathrooms were an excellent size, well equipped, and very clean. Beds very very comfortable. The area was very quiet, convenient (bus stop nearby, trains within walking distance, shop within walking distance although a hill to get there but that didn't bother us at all). The apartment we stayed in was downstairs which was perfect for us as it was quiet and out of the way. The only downside was the dishwasher was full of dirty dishes when we arrived (and couldn't find cups to make tea!) but this was easily resolved by turning on the dishwasher and the rest of the apartment was spotless so can't really complain.

Enjoyable 2 night stay though the hotel room was noisy, music from the bar could be heard until late at night and the walls are rather thin. Still, got for what I required and good value.

In many ways I liked my stay, I found my room very cosy. Good layout of the room, bathroom perfect, good water pressure. It was on the 3.5th level, no lift, but that was fine by me. The walls are paper thin, so it is essential to bring an earplug. The English breakfast was excellent if that is the type of food you are going for.

Comfortable room, though I was put in the Rosslyn which is 2 doors away from the bar and room not as nice as photos suggest. Breakfast not served until 8am which isn't suitable for a working trip and early starts.

Fantastic location and large room for family.

We stayed in the family suite with 2 twins and one king bed. Very beautiful room with high ceilings and large bathroom. Great for our family of 3 adults. Location was fantastic…a quick walk to the main road, nice walk to shops and restaurants. The hotel has a very nice bar and restaurant. We had a great breakfast every morning which was part of our room cost. The chef and hostesses were very accommodating and pleasant to talk with. We were able to get into our room early as we arrived on a very early flight. We really appreciated the ability to check in early, since the room was ready. We loved our location and would highly recommend.

We booked to stay in HQ hotel but on arrival were told we weren't staying there but in a guest house 30 yards down the road, the Glen Mona. There is no mention of this in expedia's listing, not good. We were in an attic room up 6 flights of stairs. Owner did say we ciuld.swap later in the week but didn't want to waste a day packing and unpacking so stayed there. Room was very basic, sloping ceiling, small, hot with leaky kettle on such a narrow shelf it was dangerous. En suite was tiny. Shower was awful, water becoming scalding without warning. Tiny sink with rotating taps that at times both had hot.water. Towels were rarely changed, cups rarely cleaned. I had take toilet rolls out of the residents lounge toilets because they were not replaced. I had to clean the toilet myself, it was awful. Found an in cistern blue block in residents lounge which helped a bit. Breakfast was in HQ, which was where we were supposed to be. It was fine, full english either in buffet or to order. Changed randomly. 2 mystery cereals on bar, tasteless yogurt, tangerines and a toaster. Nice room and service was good. Would not recommend at all, good position just off front but so many better options. The Isle.of Man is fantastic, had great weather so barely spent any time in room so stuck with it. Do visit, but not this hotel.

Great location, Staff friendly, Lacked Cleanliness

The staff were friendly and attentive. The breakfast was a standard English-cooked breakfast with cereal and canned/fresh fruit offering - no major frills. Common areas were clean, but the room could have been cleaned better on arrival. The location is just one street back from the main promenade - good for seeing Douglas. Rooms were in different buildings, and there was a lot of noise from the water pipes in the morning and evenings, as well as hearing people moving in the corridors.
