The Linroy Bed and Breakfast Skegenss

Very pretty and well kept on the outside. Everywhere was very clean, apart from one dirty mark on the bed sheet. Quiet surroundings despite being quite close to the pier. Hair dryer was quick and efficient even though it was a travel one! Breakfast was nice. Had the added bonus of meeting their dog by chance and he was really friendly and sweet :)

Was phoned and asked if we were still coming and what time it would be, despite stating when on my booking. Made us feel a bit anxious, as we've never experienced this before. Never got to meet the female owner but we met the male owner. My Mother and I came to remember a very close family member who we have recently lost and we explained this after we were asked why we had come to Skegness (we've never experienced this before either), but he wasn't very empathetic and the checking in process was a bit uncomfortable for us. Shower was very small and not very powerful. Asked if we could leave our bags there after we checked out at 10AM, as our train wasn't until 6PM and he seemed a bit confused but we explained what we meant and that we had been able to do this in other B&B's. Unfortunately, we had to collect the bag at 1PM as no one would be in after that (?) so we had to carry our bags around which tainted the day for us. The worst part was the door not being answered for 10 minutes, leaving us thinking that we had to go home without our bag which we really didn't find very funny. We are already grieving so the added stress that we felt because of this was amplified. We were then told that we could leave our luggage at the train station, only for us to drag everything up there to find out that we couldn't. As a B&B owner, proper knowledge of things like that is expected. We even said it wasn't something the station had done for years but we were told that guests who stayed there often say they have done it. In a nutshell we felt like we weren't fully wanted (almost like they had plans to do stuff and we got in the way), and that we got messed about with a couple of times (perhaps for the male owners amusement as he seemed a bit miserable during our interactions). Based off of hospitality, we wouldn't stay again.
