Old building was closed as a Hotel, I can see by the lounges it used to be a classy place, but became run down over many years, can understand why it closed. Now opened by Indian people, the building needs refurbishing ,there was water dripping from part of ceiling in bathroom. However, otherwise fine, and comfortable and very adequate for the excellent price in today's Hôtel market. I shall return next trip. Best deal in Brighton and Hove.
