    The location of the property is great. It is right in the heart of the city with lots of eateries and pubs nearby / on the doorstep. The property is also only a stones throw away from the city centre / sea front and train station. Everything was easily walkable. The property was clean, bright, modern and contained all the amenities as described. James (the host) was friendly, welcoming, informative and had a great level of communication.

    The place was brand new and the upkeep was excellent. The quality of the interiors would easily rival the best five star hotels around. Great kitchen infrastructure, well lit rooms, very spacious bedroom/Living and a fantastic, squeaky clean, modern bathroom. The smart TV was such a boon. The steady and strong wifi needs special mention. The location was superb.....just minutes away from a variety of restaurants, the waterfront, coffee shops and grocery stores. Overall we had a wonderful stay.

    The location is good. It is basically 10-15mins walk to high street shops and the beach. Can get food and coffee just around the corner. The room is clean and comfortable. We stayed in deluxe double room and it comes with A/C, a sofa and lots of space in the room. Free carpark is a plus point. This hotel has been renovated and compared to nearby hotels, i want to say this one definitely worth the money!

    Everything. There was so much attention to detail throughout the hotel. The decor was a mix of modern and more traditional. The executive double we stayed in was beautiful. Large room, gorgeous colours and furniture. The bed was very comfortable, you could tell no expense has been spared on the quality of bedding. The bath was a corner bath and very plush. The lady who was running the hotel was so polite and friendly and made our stay very welcoming. The location was great, short taxi ride into Central Bournemouth. Thank you!! 😊
