Disliked: Damp smelling bedroom and damp bedding

Good

Liked: Clean and location very good
Disliked: One staff member very poor customer service, they gave us a room upgrade on our arrival, nice surprise but then the hotel changed their minds next day and abruptly moved us to original booked room. I suspect they overbooked for first night and hence the upgrade. However they didn't explain we would need to move next day so we unpacked everything. This lack of communication made all the difference between a good experience and a negative one. The next morning our key cards didn't work on our door on return from breakfast. This is how we found out we were to move. No compensation offered. The new reception person remained polite but it mucked up our morning. Really issue was Just poor communication by the first reception person and made us late on our plans for the day whilst we unexpectedly had a room change. I was pretty cranky.

The Blandford hotel is bland

Liked: The location, it was fairly clean (with a few issues) , breakfast was included. Staff was pleasant.
Disliked: Dirty towels, we had to return multiple sets of towels because they kept sending us dirty towels! I don’t want to say the place was unclean, other than the towels it was ok.The rooms were small, but we knew this going in.Breakfast was bland, nothing too impressive but it beat having to find food each morning to start our day.

very good, as usual

Great location but not worth...

Liked: Location. Style.
Disliked: Incredibly small room. Old carpet. Bed breakfast- no welcome at breakfast. Hard bed and pillows.
