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.

As others have said before, this place has a quirky charm. The owners John and Mary are really lovely, and couldn’t do enough to help us and we had many nice chats with them. We stayed in a family room and it is a great location being just over a 5 minute walk to the beach, and just a bit further to the pier and town. We really enjoyed our stay here and as we left our son asked John if we could stay there again.
