Great price and location. Nice to have a breakfast offered the next morning. Quiet and no dramas!
Pros:

Arrived late so had to use the paid parking behind the building. But the hotel was mostly quiet. There is a bit of road noise in the back rooms where I was, but it did not stop me sleeping. Should have gone for a walk along the beach! Next time!

Cons:

road noise with window open in back room

Hotel agradable, localización perfecta. Inmejorable relación calidad-precio
Pros:

Tiene una muy buena ubicación. Excelente calidad precio. Muy limpios la habitación y el baño. Es sencillo pero precioso y tiene todo lo necesario para una estancia agradable en Bournemouth. Tiene ventilador en la habitación, pero es difícil quedarse en el hotel si hay una ola de calor. El desayuno es sencillito pero bastante rico. El ambiente es agradable. Lo mejor: el jardín precioso. Sin lugar a dudas repetiré.

Cons:

El wifi no funcionaba muy bien y el internet se caía todo el rato, lo que hizo complicado trabajar desde el hotel.
Si hay una ola de calor como la que hemos tenido a finales de Mayo 2026, hace bastante calor tanto en las zonas comunes como en la habitación.
