Rebooked for next year.
Location - smack in the middle, 5 minutes to train and buses. Room small but not overly so. 3 step entry was fun late at night but that's more my big fingers than a problem. Microwave and mini fridge in room - useful.

Our room was small but comfortable and clean. Facilities included TV, kettle and supplies, fridge and microwave. Plenty of hanging space and drawers. The property may need some TLC but security was good and the position close to the sea front couldn't be faulted. The owner was friendly and helpful, good value at the price.

The property inside was very dated and in need of a good deep clean, and outside was very shabby and needs to be painted. On saying that. the bed was comfortable and the bedding and towels were nice and clean and the lady that greeted us was very friendly

Not bad, not as advertised
The ad shows parking £3. It was not marked, and in the paid town parking lot, which was down the street and more than £3. I had to email to find out where to park. No breakfast in the morning as advertised, no mention of the change on the website, at the site, or in communication from the manager.

The room was fine for our two nights stay although the mattress in the single bed was hard probably more suitable for a child. The WiFi connection was extremely poor. If one needed the use of Wi-Fi it is definitely not the place to stay at. We did manage by connecting to nearby restaurants . The owner was pleasant and helpful.

It was a nice place for a seaside bedroom, it was fine. The place smelt nice and the lady was very friendly and nice. Able to have a nice conversation and laugh. We were able to come and go as we liked with our own key so that's a plus. The location is perfect in-between the beach and highstreets. We only had one annoyance, I had booked a double bed with it's own bathroom, even the confirmation said so too. We were given two single beds with the bathroom upstairs. It was annoying to travel 6 hours for a funeral, to run up and downstairs for showers or a toilet. Having to get dressed straight out the shower and basically walk through a stranger's house felt weird. The room could have done with a hoover as I had to keep my shoes on. But I consider myself very picky when it comes to sleeping somewhere. Double check what you've booked unlike me aha.

Dorset short stay on a budget
Booked on a last minute impulse at 7.30 pm arrived at 8.30 pm to a friendly welcome.. Central Weymouth location with convenient (paid) parking. Its neither glamorous b or quaint but the room was clean and comfortable and perfect for one or two nights just as a base for exploring the wonderful Dorset coast.

Very close to sea front
A basic guest house with tea and coffee making facilities no breakfast but there are lots cheap eating places nearby. Sarah was very nice and helpful, gave us lots of information for a nice holiday, that was really nice of her. But don't expect her will be there all the time. When we got to the place there was a notice with her telephone number for contact, mind you, she showed up in no time and very friendly. Car parking is on the street with a parking permit is £5 per day, which you can purchase from Sarah. A nearby council car park with free parking from 6pm to 8am, would have been better for us as we only want a place for resting at night. Our bathroom was not attached to the room although it was only for us, but we have to go up a stairs. But the price was reasonable

Small guest house close to seafront
Small room with extremely small ensuite shower. Every time you flushed the toilet or used the water in the sink or shower there was a terrible noise. Every time someone else in the building did the same you could hear the same noise, although not so loud. All the doors are heavy fire doors and slam when being closed. This could be heard throughout the building.The first night was bearable, the second night was unbearable and we left before our final night. This hotel would be good for very sound sleepers who don't mind the constant noise. Beware the cost of parking permits at £5 a day.

Close to the beach but dated and not clean
I stayed in a double bedroom and it was small and crammed with furniture. For a drop in night it was okay however the bed was not clean, there were no matteress protector on the bed nor were the sheets clean. The duvet had stains all over it and the showers base was filthy. The toilet makes a loud noise upon flushing and the shower sounds like the boiler is about to burst because of the constant rumbling banging sound every few seconds. The valence surrounding the base was stained and muddy. If it wasn't for the lack of finding another hotel nearby I would have left like a flash. However upon complaint of the bed sheets they were changed however I will not be returning here despite this. I understand that due to the nature of it being a guest house it's not like hotel service however one thing I would say is the standard of cleanliness should be the same wherever you stay and that was the issue with my stay.
