David the host is fabulous. Nothing was too much trouble. A wonderful location as straight on to Poole Quay. Breakfast was out of this world, such a great cook. The hotel itself has so much history, a very unusual building. A definite stay again place.

This is a unique and characterful place to stay, close to Poole Quay. David is super friendly and helpful. He is a font of knowledge on the attractions in the area. Excellent and very filling breakfast in a lovely dining area and you get to meet Bentley too.

Cheap doesn’t need to be filthy The place was really dirty the host was ok but our room had so much dust and dirt you could have set up an allotment in the room, the bed well there is nothing good about that, the mattress was as old as the building and the springs have gone, awful nights sleep, if we hadn’t been stay just for the night we wouldn’t have stayed,
