We had a fantastic stay at this hotel in Poole. The staff were lovely and made us feel so welcomed. The hotel was very clean and quirky, which we really liked. The rooms were big, spacious, and very clean. The hotel is also dog-friendly, which was a great plus for us. The location was perfect, as we could easily walk to the beach or the park in less than 5 minutes. We also appreciated the parking and the outside seating area, even though the weather wasn't on our side during our stay. The breakfasts were lovely, and we enjoyed a nice evening meal as well.
Everything is what we need and want.

Nothing I didn't like to be fair.
I had an excellent stay at this hotel. Upon arrival, I was pleasantly surprised when the staff upgraded my room at no extra charge. The hotel is located opposite the beach, which was incredibly convenient for me as I love being close to the sea. The cleanliness of the hotel was impeccable, and the room I stayed in was spotlessly clean. The hotel facilities were great, and I especially enjoyed the cooked breakfasts which were delicious. The staff were friendly, accommodating, and happy to cater to my preferences. All in all, this hotel provided a fantastic experience.
Not one thing.
The hotel had a great location, situated on the outskirts of an amazing beach in the conservatory of a lovely city. The breakfast was delicious, with homemade jams, marmalade, yogurt, and granola. The staff were friendly, efficient, and welcoming. The room was modern, comfortable, and spacious, with a large bathroom. the hotel offered great facilities and transportation options.
Nothing, everything was great.
