    A lovely cooked breakfast and lovely location out of the way of the main town but within walkable distance to the town and beach.

    Lovely small hotel in Bournemouth, good location just a few minutes to the beach and not far from the pier and town centre. Lovely big room, quiet and good breakfast, especially the home made marmalade, yummy! Also great that they are dog friendly.

    When we arrived, we were not sure if it was the right place since the outside looked run down.

    When we rang the bell, a nice man gives us a warm welcome he was very kind and let us book in early. The breakfast was excellent.

    Lack of charm in the deco, not warm enough in our view. While located next to the beach, the area is not clean and there are lots of homeless all around the property. The location is at the back of the house of many tall buildings which is either not warm for Bournemouth

    Family run B&B, located next to the beach

    Cleanliness in some areas of the hotel wasn't great, crumbs under table in bedroom. A large amount of stacked chairs in the breakfast room I could understand but it doesn't look great. They were really nice comfy chairs though, but the ironing board stacked in corner looked bad. The garden view we had was nice but the garden looked untidy. And the patch job in the ceiling of the dining room understandable but looked like it had been there a while.

    Family room was very large with plenty of space, mini Fridge in room, tea coffee etc. Nice layout, good bed linen, Really great decent size towels in the bathroom. Not a fan of tiny towels after a shower/bath. Hot breakfast was good, nice delph etc. Good Location near beach easy walking distance to the Pier.

    Only criticism was our room was directly over lounge/Dining area and at times was quite noisy.

    Location was perfect for the town and seafront. Host was very welcoming the room was very comfortable slightly small but ideal for our stay. Breakfast was very good and the young member of staff serving was very pleasant.

    The room was big, with a large bathroom. Both were spotless. Car parking is a bonus and the location is good for walking to the Prom, Beach and Town. Excellent selection for breakfast and cooked to order. We went for twin beds, that were very comfortable and we had 2 nights solid sleep. We were grateful for an early check-in at 12 which gave us a free afternoon. Unfortunately, the TV reception was poor and made a loud clicking noise, that couldn't be fixed. Not a big issue,but nice to relax with after a day out.
