Experiência razoável
Pros:

Hotel com as mínimas condições de acomodação. Cama confortável e água quente. Não é o hotel mais central mas igualmente não o mais afastado, portanto é razoável, com parque de estacionamento gratuito. Boa opção para uma noite em Bournemouth.

Cons:

A melhorar, recomendo mais atenção à limpeza(sujidade junto à janela da casa de banho) e a renovação de algumas coisas no quarto(cortina rasgada e televisão antiga).

Hotel.closed down at 7pm, luckily I gained entry by another guest on food delivery, and I was told off by receptionist when I finally got served and given room access. Rude and dismissive

Terrible.
Pros:

There was hair all over our bathroom floor, it hadn’t been mopped there was mud or blood or whatever it was. The mirrors were filthy. We waited at reception for 15 minutes ringing the bell and calling reception and the man didn’t come and when he did he sauntered down the stairs and made no apology for how long we’d been waiting to check in.

Cons:

How filthy everything was.
