Very Horrible place to live for comfort

There was a smell of smoking in the room, blood on bathroom floor, toilet roll was tiny, duvet was very dirty. I booked two nights, but I was able to manage one night as I had no choice to sleep there for the next day to book another one. When I informed the receptionist of my experience, he did not care to know as he was on the phone smiling. Very horrible experience. A lot of noises everywhere and drilling.

WORST hotel in Bournemouth

I have been staying in Bournemouth 3-4 times every year for the last 30 years and this is definitely the WORST hotel I have ever stayed in Night 1: Our flight was delayed - rang hotel numerous times - no answer Got to hotel - no-one in reception - front door locked - nobody about - 2 guests entered hotel at midnight (they had keys)and we followed them into foyer We stayed in foyer until 3am - somebody appeared in reception and we got key to our room Night 2: People asleep on couch in foyer area Night 3: Returned to hotel at 22.30 - our key for front door did NOT work - luckily there was someone in reception area - heard us knocking and let us in The Wi-Fi did not work The duvets were filthy Carpet was filthy 3 star hotel - seriously?? The shower had hot water sometimes There was a nice gentleman on reception when we were leaving on Monday morning - the only positive aspect to our whole stay

If you like the dirty crack den feel this is the hotel for you. My gf said it was worse the the 1* 18-30 holiday to kavos she went on in 2001. It was that bad one of our party who was staying left and rebooked another hotel . And I am still awaiting a refund. We found a syringe rapper in our bathroom one of the rooms still had food on the floor from the guest before. The beds look like they had been knocked up in a year 7 wood work class out if MDF and were all different heights . The rooms had a strong smell of wet cat 🐈 If I could leave a -5 star I would I can see me having to contact the back to get my refund as it was promised before leaving and I am still waiting now .....

The hotel staff were very nice and helpful, although the hotel needs updating and redecorating. The rooms were very standard, we booked 5 rooms. Some rooms had bedside tables others didn’t and some you could just get in due to the beds being right near to the door. The showers were changeable in temperature one minute hot then freezing the next... overall it was ok for what we wanted

Sunken beds

All 4 beds was sunk in the middle, I didn’t have one night of rest, very uncomfortable. Hard to find parking. Small hotel. The only thing I liked was the complementary coffee and tea. The shower had scolding hot water, couldn’t get the temp to work. I didn’t respond to the knock on my door, the cleaning person opened the door anyways to clean. I was in my towel. I suggest you take all valuables with you before to leave the room, and on with your day. But for the price I would stay but not with any valuables items.

Awful Hotel

Uncomfortable bed Shower has no pressure in it Thin walls so could hear guests in adjacent rooms talking Non smoking hotel but several guests were smoking out of the window. This place shouldn’t be on Hotels.com as it’s absolutely appalling. It’s more like a hostel for travellers with no respect for others
