A clean, cheerfully priced little guesthouse in Brighton's Kemptown, where helpful host Jeremy, easy self check-in, generous tea, coffee and biscuits, and a location a short walk from the beach make for a fuss-free stay, though compact rooms and very small bathrooms mean it suits light-travelling couples rather than those needing space.
