Cons:

On my first night there was no-one at reception - a new guest was banging and banging on the door to get in. Freezing cold room. Weak shower.

Non male
Pros:

David il proprietario è una persona davvero carina, educata e molto disponibile… Lui è quel plus che ti fa sentire a casa

Cons:

Sicuramente è una struttura che va un po ristrutturata nel tempo… magari la pulizia nelle camere dovrebbe essere più accurata

All in all we had a nice couple of days. Will come back as well.
Pros:

The breakfast was very nice, it made a nice change to have continental, plus it was varied as well.
The location was perfect, not far from the beach and also there was good restaurant's and pub's.

Cons:

It could have been a bit warmer in the night.

As a family run business, I expected more and felt they had care in the hotel industry
Pros:

Wi fi was useful

Cons:

Small room
Broken toilet
Shower don’t drain and floods
Units with missing handles
Small tv and mount badly
Awful coffee in room
Dangerous parking area
Guttering to hot tub venue needed clearing

To sum up family run business with no heart in the industry or customer service.
We visit Bournemouth again but not stay in Mont Stuart hotel again.

A EVITAR SI VAIS EN INVIERNO.. NO PONEN LA CALEFACCION ANTES DE LA ENTRADA, Y EL TERMO VA POR RELOJ
Pros:

Sólo la ubicación

Cons:

EL AGUA CALIENTE DE LAS HABITACIONES SE BASA EN UN TERMO CON TEMPORIZADOR. YO LLEGUÉ TEMPRANO, ME DIJERON QUE TENÍA QUE ESPERAR HASTA LAS 13.00 O 14.00 HRS PARA ENTRAR. ALGO QUE YA SABÍA.. SIN EMBARGO CUANDO HAGO EL CHECK IN, LA HABITACIÓN ESTABA HELADA,. ME INDICAN QUE TENGO QUE PONER EL RADIADOR ELECTRICO Y COMO HACERLO PARA QUE SE CALIENTE LA HABITACION Y AL INTENTAR DARME UNA DUCHA CALIENTE Y NO HABER AGUA CALIENTE PREGUNTO EN RECEPCION Y ME COMENTAN QUE EL CALENTADOR NO EMPIEZA A CALENTAR HASTA LAS 16.00 HRS. Y QUE A PARTIR DE LAS 16.00 HRS TENDRÍA AGUA CALIENTE. INTENTÉ DARME UNA DUCHA A LAS 17.00 HRS Y AUN EL AGUA NO ESTABA CALIENTE, SALÍA MEDIO FRIA... VOY A RECEPCIÓN HABLO CON LA CHICA Y PIDO HABLAR CON EL MANAGER TRAS DECIRME ELLA QUE NO PODÍA HACER NADA. SE LLAMA AL PROPIETARIO, Y LO QUE COMENTA ES QUE "ES LO QUE HAY" Y QUE TENGO QUE ESPERAR HASTA LAS 18.00 HRS PORQUE EL CALENTADOR SE ESTÁ CALENTANDO (RESULTA QUE YO ERA LA ÚNICA PERSONA EN EL HOTEL) . .. LE PIDO A LA CHICA DE RECEPCION QUE POR FAVOR, INTENTEMOS VER OTRA HABITACIÓN A VER SI SALE MAS CALIENTE EL AGUA... EFECTIVAMENTE, EL AGUA SALÍA MAS CALIENTE EN OTRA HABITACIÓN CONTIGUA Y ME CAMBIA DE HABITACIÓN SIN EMBARGO LA HABITACIÓN ESTABA HELADA.. Y ME TRAE UN CALEFACTOR PORTATIL.
ME INDICAN QUE EN TODA LA INFORMACIÓN DEL HOTEL SE INFORMA DEL TEMA DEL TERMO ... SIN EMBARGO YO NO VEO ESTA ESPECIFICACION EN EL ANUNCIO DE BOOKING...LOGICAMENTE ME PILLE UN RESFRIADO INTERESANTE, UN DIA LLUVIOSO, DE FINALES DE NOVIEMBRE, Y TRAS PELEAR YO CON RECEPCIÓN LOGRÉ ALGO... AL MANAGER LE DABA IGUAL...
