Powered by AI
The Collingwood Guest House boasts an amazing location, just a short walk-about two minutes-from both the town centre and the seafront, making it convenient for exploring. The rooms are cosy and clean, featuring comfortable beds, hot showers, and TVs with internet channels. Some guests have noted the presence of peeled paint on the stairs, but overall, the proximity to the beach and nearby amenities is a major draw.

Mixed Feelings About This Stay

musty odor sticky carpet
The room had a noticeable musty odor I did not appreciate. The carpet felt sticky in places. The bathroom also had a strong smell of mold. I booked this for several people, but it barely accommodated two. There was no towel replacement during my multiple days of stay.
