The place was clean and the hotel is placed in a very quiet area. There are plenty of restaurants, grocery stores, pubs within walking distance and it's also close to the train station where you could easily catch a train to go to other places.
However we didn't have an entirely pleasant stay. The room we were staying in was pretty cold and when we asked about it at the reception we were told either that it's automated and there's nothing they can do, or that they will turn on the heat (the room was still cold). By the time someone came to check and realised the heating wasn't working we were already halfway through our stay. We weren't even given an extra comforter/blanket when we requested it.

The first thought was the photo of the hotel is very misleading. The angle of the photo shows flowers from the property next door!
The staff were very pleasant and helpful and explained how the parking permit worked.
They kindly changed our room from 2nd floor to first floor without being asked when they saw my husband struggles walking.
The room was clean and comfy but the bathroom wasn't very good the bath was marked and the shower screen doesn't look as if its ever been cleaned. The curtains were not hung very smart infact they were difficult to open. The stair carpet was badly stained which is off putting. If you want somewhere basic then its ideal. We used the bus service because it was cheaper than parking

wouldn't return

The hotel is dated, the staff not that communicative and the room was in need of a good clean and repairs needed.
The communal ladies toilet was disgusting, two toilets blocked with you name it, the third had a bin on top of it so I guess was blocked too. I called staff as I needed toilet and our room was not ready, the lights were not working in the toilet area, the staff tidied around before I could use it, and stood outside the main door to stop anyone coming in so there was some light.
Bedroom was dated, shower leaking, toilet stained, floors dirty, carpet not pleasant, needs a good refurb.

Cheap but perfectly acceptable.

By far the cheapest room in Brighton. It's basic but had everything I needed for the night.

After reading a lot of the other reviews on here, I was nervous about what I was walking into but it really isn't that bad. There is a noticeable smell that hit me as soon as I entered my room but after 5 minutes I had gotten used to it.

My only other criticism would be that the walls are very thin. I heard other residents snoring, people chatting and walking around the building. If you're a light sleeper, i'd recommend earplugs.

I needed a last-minute no-frills one-night stay in central Hove. The Langford fitted the bill perfectly. Large clean en-suite room, comfy bed, and an extremely helpful and cheerful porter who was there for me checking in at 23:30 and then checking out at 07:30.

The hotel could benefit from a decor refresh, but for the price I paid for my room, I couldn’t have asked for more. Great value.

1. Not disabled friendly. A disabled personal cannot climb 3 stairs with the luggage.

3. Flush does not work
4. No proper water pressure in the sink
5. No hot water.
6. loft was converted into tiny rooms and over priced. £95 per night for dirty, smelling room.

The parking arrangements are non existent - beware! I specifically filtered hotels with parking facilities - they give the impression they have their own parking available - its simple street parking, which you pay for via an app. It's not clear which app - but it's PayByPhone in Brighton&Hove
The shower area in the bathroom had not been cleaned properly - there were shaving clippings stuck to the tiling in the shower.
The decor in the hotel generally inside looked tired and old and worn.
The fire alarm randomly went off about 10pm prompting panic and screaming and a general hub bub which carried on most of the night.
The TV in the room doesn't work despute having an aerial lead plugged (loosely) into the wall, so that needs checking!
There was a working kettle and tea and coffee.

AVOID - total scam from OYO Group

AVOID! They couldn’t house us due to a ‘leak’, they switched our hotel the night before when it was too late for us to find alternative accommodation. (Not via Hotels.com) The alternative hotel (Albion, Hove) was awful, the curtains were see-through, bed was broken and there was no shower, just a water pipe 😂 (see pic). We were promised a refund but they then refused this. Hotels.com wouldn’t refund us either so I claimed a full refund via Monzo disputes and would urge anyone else to do the same. The OYO hotel group is a scam, not to be trusted.

OK for a budget hotel but needs work

I booked a room for an overnight stay to visit the dentist. At £40, even in February, one can't be be too picky about the quality.

The paintwork in the room was tired, the fan in the bathroom on its last legs and very noisy, the carpet grubby. However the bathroom itself was very clean and the mattress newish and comfortable. The communal areas were OK, though the staircarpet was stained in places. Overall, OK for the price, but could do with some new (or cleaned) carpets, at least.

Overall a decent place to stay with friendly staff. We stayed in a deluxe double room which was large and had plenty of storage space, and also had a 2 seater couch. Although it only had a small TV placed far from the bed. There wasn't any accessible plugs near the bed either. The room was fairly clean and the walls and ceiling seem to have been painted fairly recently. Unfortunately the overall condition of the property is in need of attention. E.g. in our room curtains were coming away from rails, wardrobe doors wouldn't shut, there was no headboard on bed, the couch had paint stains on, TV remote battery cover missing, room door lock was loose, only 1 hanger provided in the wardrobe.
In the hotel corridors, the carpets were stained and a broken window halfway down the stairs.
