Good place to stay for Bournemouth. 10 minutes walk to the sea front and about 20 minutes walk to Bournemouth sea front and town centre. Room was very clean and the small inside pool was good enough for a few strokes. Would stay again on our next visit.
Very helpful staff great place to stay will definitely come back

The customer service truly stood out, especially from the manager, who was exceptional. We arrived very early and she went above and beyond by having our room ready for us well before the 3:00 pm check-in time — allowing us to check in as early as 10:30 am, which we greatly appreciated.
While the service was excellent, the overall condition of the property would benefit from renovation. The room showed signs of wear, including damaged carpeting and exposed plumbing in the bathroom, which raised some safety concerns. With improvements to the facilities, this hotel could be greatly enhanced, as the staff clearly care about the guest experience.

We had a lovely stay, the receptionist were very friendly.
Bed very comfortable as usual with mattress being less than 6 months old compared to cheap, old, lumpy mattresses in small Independent hotels. Reception staff professional plus it also has a pool too.

Very busy. Rooms to hot and loud music in the bar. Ok for the price and the staff are great
Room was nice, but window open to the top of the property roof..not to much view.
Food was ok, would be better more option. Easy to access to the beach on a nice forest way.
Anyway we were feeling good. Price is good.

It’s a 3 star hotel that doesn’t pretend to be anything other. It’s clean. The food is good and the staff are very helpful. Despite the fact that the hotel was full the room was very quiet and we had a good nights sleep. It was really hot outside and the hotel staff provided us with a fan. Great place to stay
