The hotel on level 2 turned out to be a mixed experience for me. Despite the bed being uncomfortable and the wallpaper coming off the walls, the location right by the Pier and next to Sandown's sandy beach was superb. The breakfast was included, and the room had a TV, which was convenient. However, there were some issues with the room's condition that affected my stay.
