You said: Walls in corridors and rooms painted loooong time ago Carpets worn out and dangerous to walk on Mould on walls in bathrooms Had to ask for another room as the first one was not acceptable for a family stay. Breakfast at the weekend ok, but week days absolutely awfull( English full breakfast not eatable as tomatos frm the can, mashrooms watery and ols, not able to order other then that. One of the days the police has visited the hotel. In the corridor feeling on very siff air, not fresh at all ChatGPT said: Here’s a clearer, more polished version of your text in a firm but professional tone (suitable for a review or complaint): The walls in the corridors and rooms appear not to have been painted in a very long time and look tired and neglected. The carpets are heavily worn and feel unsafe to walk on. There was visible mould on the bathroom walls, which is unacceptable, especially for a family stay. We had to request a different room, as the first one was not suitable or up to standard. Breakfast was acceptable at the weekend; however, during the week it was absolutely awful. The full English breakfast was inedible — the tomatoes were from a can, the mushrooms were watery and old, and there were no alternative options available to order. On one of the days, the police

The customer service truly stood out, especially from the manager, who was exceptional. We arrived very early and she went above and beyond by having our room ready for us well before the 3:00 pm check-in time — allowing us to check in as early as 10:30 am, which we greatly appreciated. While the service was excellent, the overall condition of the property would benefit from renovation. The room showed signs of wear, including damaged carpeting and exposed plumbing in the bathroom, which raised some safety concerns. With improvements to the facilities, this hotel could be greatly enhanced, as the staff clearly care about the guest experience.

Good bits - staff, always polite, knowledgeable and with the smile. Parking is free, but it was difficult to find a spot. Now, bad bits - Hotel is dirty, masking tape holding carpet together on the stairs and walkways. Went to the pool with the kids and pool was very cold + its quite deep on shallow end, 1.2m, so even with floaties I had to stay with the kids full time, as they were struggling to reach the bottom of the pool. Breakfast is bad, sausages dry, beacon burned :( No sweet cereals for the children, my kids tried the ones available and refused to eat them, as they were tasteless (I tried and agree). There was only one set of sockets by the TV, nothing close to the bed, so if phone is on charger overnight - you cant keep it close to the bed. It was a heavy rain overnight and water was pouring from the external lighting housing at the entrance of the hotel, potentially someone may get "charged up" :) Not very good experience overall, one of the worst we have been so far in Bournemouth.
