All in all - had a very comfortable 2 night stay. The location was marvellous and incredible, so close to shops, restaurants and bars, and central Bournemouth and easily accessible. Besides, Cleveleys Front Promenade was 2 km away from the property. Got family room in lovely condition as expected, liked it. The vibe here was family.
