5am

What's worse than staying in a seafront hotel in a seaside town, during a terrible storm? When the fire alarm goes off at 5am, when the storm is at its worst, and the 70mph gusts knock everybody over during the evacuation. This is me being surprisingly cheery during this. The people around me were not happy. Nobody was happy, least of all the man who had to kick down the padlocked fire exit. I would not recommend this hotel.
