The Windsor

I had to give a star because the site wouldn’t let me post without one. We went for my grandson’s parade and left after 15 minutes. I found the place flea-ridden, with furniture that looked less updated than the Addams Family’s. It seemed like a dropout’s paradise, and an unsavoury character followed us in. The owner was asleep when we left and, as he was drunk, didn’t even see us. Please don’t go. booking dot com will allow this to happen.

The Windsor is a bit tired and dated, but the couple who own it are lovely. The 23 of us who checked in were made to feel very welcome, and the beds were clean and comfortable. The front rooms were very hot, though that seemed more due to the weather than the rooms themselves. Thank you for your hospitality.

The walls were crumbling, damp-stained, and dirty, and there were coffee stains on the drapes. The furniture was old, ripped, stained, and dirty, with a ripped carpet too. What a horrible, nasty, filthy pig pen of a place. The owner doesn’t care. It deserves minus 10 stars. Do NOT go there!!!

It’s relatively cheap for the area and handy for Dover, so it works as an overnight stop before an early ferry. Beyond that, there’s not much to recommend: it’s dilapidated, grubby, and tired.
