The property was exactly as the photos, new and super clean. The bed was so comfortable that it will make you think twice before getting up. The host is amazing and replies to all your messages. All the essentials mentioned were available in the room and the kitchen had everything you need. The location is perfect and nearby everything. There is a mini supermarket that opens till late which is very convenient. I strongly recommend this place to others.

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.
