"I recently stayed at The Marine Hotel Troon with my 80-year-old disabled mum as a birthday treat. While we booked a deluxe king room with a sea view, which was pleasant, our stay was overshadowed by serious concerns regarding safety and poor communication. The phone in our second-floor room was not working and was constantly engaged. Given that my mum is disabled, this was completely unacceptable and left me extremely anxious, as I had no way to contact reception in the event of an emergency during the night. To make matters worse, no information about breakfast was provided at check-in, and there was nothing in the room either. I attempted to call reception from around 8pm, but due to the faulty phone, this was impossible. I was eventually forced to go down to reception myself after 10pm just to ask basic questions about breakfast times and location. A staff member did come to the room and confirmed the phone was faulty. I specifically asked to be informed once it had been fixed, yet I received no update whatsoever.

"Massive party next door nothing was done loud music fighting arguing rang reception. A few times they went to room but it carried on reception this morning weren’t that bothered never stay my there again her attitude was they did leave after 1 am joke of an answer to give a paying customer who needs sleep as working away "

The carpets are so grubby, some steps the carpet is held together with gaffer tape. When we said we wouldn’t be staying because it wasn’t suitable and damp and in general disrepair. We weren’t offered any incentive to stay or give an option for a better room. This hotel would have been amazing in the 1980’s but has indeed lost all its charm. "
