I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The room was one of the best I've ever experienced - the super king bed was incredibly comfy, and the bathroom was so nice with plenty of space. However, there was some noise from the gym below, and the lack of air conditioning or ceiling fans made the room quite hot. The service was exceptional - the staff went out of their way to ensure I had a wonderful stay, they were very friendly, and always kind and helpful. The location was great for exploring Dorchester and driving to nearby areas, but there were limited options within walking distance for a nice pub. The dining experience was above average, although the poached egg on the eggs benedict was slightly overcooked. The facilities were top-notch and added to my overall enjoyment of the hotel.

The room was one of the best I have stayed in a hotel - the super king bed was incredibly comfy, and the bathroom was really nice with plenty of space, which I loved. However, there was some noise from the gym located below, and the room could benefit from air conditioning or ceiling fans.
