Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Really awful experience with the customer service and the cupboard that had been turned into a ‘room’ which was the length of the bed with a small space to get in and out. The owner/ staff refused to refund despite the panic the tiny cupboard room caused, and demanded more money or I leave without refund. There should be laws because this shouldn’t be classed as room- it like an old cleaning cupboard with a small window has been turned into an opportunity to make money. Very uncaring staff / owner. Do not recommend. I had to leave and lost my money.

We had a truly wonderful experience and thoroughly enjoyed our time in Bournemouth. The family room we stayed in was exceptionally clean and comfortable—everything was just perfect for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. What truly stood out for us, though, was the honesty and integrity of your staff. After we had checked out, we received a call letting us know that a very precious item—my wife’s engagement ring—had been found by the cleaning staff. We hadn’t even realized it was missing yet! Your team’s honesty in returning such a sentimental item meant so much to us, and we are deeply grateful. It’s rare to find such genuine care and fairness these days, and it really left a lasting impression. Please extend our heartfelt thanks to your team for their honesty and professionalism. We will absolutely be leaving a 10 out of 10 review, and we’re already looking forward to our next visit. Thank you again for everything! Warm regards, Dragos & Family

2 day stay in Bournemouth

On arrival checked in, told second floor then realised no lift ( 4 flights of stairs). Bed extremely uncomfortable, seems 2 single beds pushed together so could feel mattress seams in middle. Room clean though couple marks on bedding. On departure gentleman was on phone so didn’t say anything and just took room fob !!, would have been nice to end call and ask if we enjoyed our stay !!!. Didn’t order breakfast as seemed pricey so can’t comment. Bar closed at 9pm which was a shame.

We chose this hotel because of the photos & good reviews. Good security, the decor is lovely.. Sadly we won’t be staying here again. The photos of the family room with a bunk bed is deceptive. It is not as large as it appears in the photos. The Family room was too small for family of 4 (2 adults & 2 children aged 8-11. The queen size bed in the middle of the room was about 18 inches away from the wall & wall mounted tv, that was the gap to pass to get to the en suite & window area where there was a small swivel table & 2 chairs. Swivel table was annoying, it moved every time an item was placed on it. Carpet felt sticky when walking around barefoot. No wardrobe- just hanging cubby. As limited space, we made use of the Chest of Draws to try and keep things minimal and tidy as the room was so small, the draws were dusty inside. So clothing got dusty. The En suite was very small. Bodywash etc too high to reach for my youngest, also sink was cracked & the extractor fan didn’t work- it seemed to be blowing air in rather than sending it out. No lift, all rooms are on 1st & 2nd floor via stairs. Didn’t order breakfast, it was a tad expensive for what was on offer. We went into the city centre & had a nice cooked breakfast for less. Car parking - free, states to park considerately. When we arrived back after a day out, the car park was full, 1 car had parked in the middle of 2 spaces. When informed the staff, they did nothing and told us to park in front of the shed and bins.
