First of all, the location is excellent, a 5-minute walk to the seaside, a 10-minute walk to Bournemouth Square, shopping and entertainment is very convenient. Secondly, because it is located in a residential area, it is very quiet to sleep at night. Finally, the room was clean, without any odor, and it was very convenient to check in and check out.

Everything! This hotel was lovely to me in almost every single aspect. Although the bathroom was shared the room had a sink and mirror so it was so useful for taking my time doing my skincare without the fear of other people wanting to use the bathroom! Breakfast, what a lovely breakfast as well, with a variety of cheese, marmalade and cereals to choose. Next to the breakfast room there's the garden door in which you can find a little pond with some koi fish. Carl, our host, was very nice too :) If I come back to Bournemouth I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again. PS If you find a Polaroid picture in a drawner, is mine, accidentally left it there.
