Location and bed
No air con - which fine but windows only opened a crack in the bedroom and not at all in the bathroom. With an east facing room it got boiling hot by 8am.
Although the hotel building is old with a lot of interesting history,there is a feeling of generous space. The bedroom was attractively furnished , very clean and comfortable . Everything in the bathroom was easy to use. A lot of thought has gone into furnishing each part of the hotel. The breakfast was lovely.
Nothing
Good location for ferry, nice hotel with outdoor facilities and with lots of character.
Le personnel était vraiment charmant et adorable.
Il faisait extrêmement chaud et il n’était pas possible d’ouvrir les fenêtres, impossible de dormir la température dans la chambre était insupportable. Il n’y a pas de climatisation dans l’hôtel mais des ventilateurs sont fournis.

Too hot but it is an old building so no AC
Location was good ,nice and quiet on a night ,staff were pleasant and helpful
Excellent breakfast. Especially liked the opportunity to make a proper POT of tea - this is rarely offered these days.
Nothing could have been better.
It’s in a great location and it has lots of character. 1 member of staff was lovely.
The bed was comfy, but the room was small, very old & tired and very hot.
A fan that actually worked would have helped a bit.
We don’t eat much so toast and cereal okit was ok for a stop off
Great location for night out in Poole.
Room was fine but very hot. Shower leaking all over floor had to mop up. Mould on tiles. Only one set of towels for two people. Breakfast average. Sausages were just luke warm. Not worth the £160 we paid.
Lovely old building - stepping into history
A bit shabby - room needed refreshing
Toast and cereal ok don’t eat much
Great location. Nice garden. Staff curtious
