I had a decent stay at Brighton Black Hotel Kemptown. While the room was small and lacked certain amenities, it was clean and comfortable enough for a short visit. The location is quite convenient, being close to the beach and the city center, but the lack of communal spaces and breakfast options might deter some guests.

The absence of communal areas and dining options made the facilities feel lacking. While I did appreciate the cleanliness and comfort of my room, there's definitely room for improvement.

I found my stay at Brighton Black Hotel Kemptown to be pretty good overall. The price was reasonable at £60, and the location was great, just a short walk to the beach. The room was spacious and comfortable, though there were a few minor downsides, like a small shower and some ongoing drilling noise that impacted my sleep. Still, the staff was polite and eager to help, which added a positive touch to my experience.

I had an overall positive experience at the hotel, enjoying the excellent location and the friendly staff. The room was clean and offered good value for money, but I did encounter some noise from neighboring rooms and a steep staircase that was a bit of a hassle with luggage. 😊

My room was clean and well equipped, albeit a bit slanted which made for an interesting sleep! The space was larger than some more 'desirable' options I've tried in Brighton.

I recently stayed at Brighton Black Hotel Kemptown, and I had mixed feelings about my experience. The location was fantastic, being just a short walk from the beachfront and local attractions, which I appreciated. However, the room itself was quite small and had a peculiar smell, and the amenities were a bit dated. While I found it clean, it felt more like a hostel than a hotel, especially with the noise from the floors above.

The facilities seemed quite basic. I missed having a lounge area to relax in, and the Wi-Fi was spotty at times, but it was sufficient for my needs.

I had fairly high hopes for my stay, especially given the location near the beach. but the overall experience fell short. The room was cramped and poorly maintained, which made returning after a day out rather demoralizing. The beds, while comfortable, were too small, and cleanliness was definitely an issue.
Rooms

The room was outdated and small, with narrow beds and a broken shower curtain. Cleanliness was questionable, with the presence of hairs and stains. The walls had holes and no adequate lighting made it dark and depressing.
Service

Check-in was frustrating with a lack of communication concerning access and room availability. I often had to contact management multiple times to resolve issues.
Location

The location is a positive aspect, being close to the beach and restaurants. However, it's not as central to Kemptown and the city center as I had hoped.
Dining

Dining options were limited nearby, and while I found a few cafes for breakfast, the overall food scene didn’t deliver as expected.
Facilities

The lack of common areas, no Wi-Fi, and steep staircases with no lift really affected my comfort during the stay. Generally, the facilities require attention to enhance the experience.
