Nice overnight stay in Bournemouth near Durley Chine.
Pros:

A good sized clean well appointed room with a small en-suite bathroom. It was a very warm spell of weather and a fan was provided which made all the difference. We were offered a free parking space. The breakfast was very good. The staff were really lovely.

Cons:

The road outside was noisy and all the windows had to be opened because it was very hot inside and out. The fan provided helped.

Gelungener Aufenthalt, jederzeit wieder.
Pros:

Sehr nettes Personal und saubere Zimmer. Sehr gute Lage in Bournemouth. Wir würden jederzeit wieder kommen.

Cons:

Durch die außergewöhnlichen hohen Außentemperaturen hat sich das Zimmer leider sehr aufgeheizt. Der vorhandene Ventilator hat nur etwas Abhilfe geschaffen.

Loved the spacious room with chairs and table and the personal touches
Pros:

Great location close to the town centre but far enough away to be quiet

Cons:

A sanctuary close to the action but far enough away to offer peace.
