2.0 star ratingAlmost nothing, only the location of the hotel was good.Almost everything. Air conditioner was not working and the night was very muggy. Was told that all other rooms are fully booked. The Shower was pathetic, I was expecting a Power shower for a fresh start. The Wifi connection was a joke, constantly droopping and the signal strength was too weak to connect properly.07 July 2010
3.5 star ratingWe arrived to check in at around 7:30pm. There were 4 people in front of us waiting to check in and only one person on the check in desk so it took a while. There were no comfy chairs or drinks so we just stood there with all our luggage. In this time, we saw that 2 people got a free upgrade and 1 was given a room overlooking the harbour whereas we received nothing - just the basic room - I'm not sure why. We were not given the code to access the Wi-fi and had to go back to reception to ask for it. We ordered a wake up call but insted they knocked on our room door as apparently the phone wasnt working though it looked totally normal and this obviously wasnt our fault. We mentioned we were getting the ferry in the morning and no directions to the ferry terminal were offered - this was not expected but would have been a nice bonus. Breakfast (full english) was £15 with an additional £5 to have it in your room! Crazy price for a relatively budget hotel so totally put us off at that price. We got the same thing on the ferry for £5 (small) or £8 (big, including tea or coffee).EFR04 August 2013
4.5 star ratingThis was the second of 2 one night stays at the hotel before and after a ferry crossing from Poole. First stay we were given a beautiful front facing room with views of the harbour. Room seemed to have been recently modernised. Staff were very pleasant both in reception and the breakfast restaurant. Breakfast was very good quality and value for money.Anonymous 14 August 2014
