Its location places you within easy reach of Bournemouth's high street and beach, while the inclusion of a generous continental breakfast adds real value. For those seeking an unfussy and well-located base, it warrants consideration.”

great stay, excellent location
convenient locationwarm hospitalitywell kept bathroomtea facilities
the location proved convenient. nearby eateries provided good choices. i found a parking spot right away. the host offered warm hospitality, and the shared bathroom was well kept. the room had a sink, a mirror, and tea making facilities. i also liked the kettle with coffee and the provision of a fan.
a deep clean would enhance the overall experience.

carl, the manager, was quite helpful. he seemed very friendly. the room was simple. it had what i needed for my brief stay. my bike was locked away safely. it gave me real peace of mind.
the shared bathroom was not ideal. the cleanliness was below what i expect. i did notice some dust. i think a deep clean is needed. also some paint work would improve things.
