Honestly, the location is fine - it's within walking distance to the Bournemouth town centre and also to the beach - you cannot ask for a better location in the area IMO!
The problem is.... the other things in the hotel.
First of all, this was the second stop of my 16 days trip in the UK and I went all the way from London to Bournemouth to Milton Keynes to Nottingham to Chester to Cambridge etc. etc. etc., but this was the only hotel which charges customers for a parking fee! Well you could say 10GBP a day wasn't much but I would prefer they kinda of blend this cost into the hotel cost - I didn't have to pay fees for hotels in city centre areas like Nottingham, Cambridge etc so it's hard to accept parking fee is needed.
The room was just so-and-so... Shower water was extremely slow and the furnitures are very old. Besides, one of the worst thing is the noise level - in both nights of staying there were party / into-the-latenight celebration or something from the hotel bar area which was a real nuisance! I didn't expect this from a quiet area in Bournemouth!
Breakfast was okay though - about the only thing I like about this hotel I guess.....
Anyway, if you are going to Bournemouth, I believe you can get better options - not to mention this was the most expensive hotel in my whole trip, even though it's probabaly the worst.
