Guests often compliment the hearty breakfast with its fresh choices, and several rooms feature a record player with vinyls for a unique touch.

charmed by my stay!

friendly staff clean place delicious food
The staff were really cute and friendly! annie gave great suggestions for local visits. She recommended macmurray in elgin, it covers different music styles. the food was amazing. I enjoyed every bite and the drinks were lovely too! the hotel was also very clean. This added much to my experience.
The walls seemed a little thin. I could hear some noise from adjacent rooms, but it wasn't too bad.

small room thin walls
the breakfast was fine , nothing to write home about but adequate.
the room was on the small side , and the decor seemed like stepping back into the 80s. the television remote didn't work , and i had to ask for assistance to get it sorted , which took longer than expected. also , the walls seemed rather thin , and i could hear conversations from the neighboring rooms quite clearly.

The breakfast was good with a great choice of food I was happy enough.
The room faced the street it was quite noisy I could hear traffic most of the night. The bathroom had a ventilation problem it was damp and the air felt stale. I also noticed a cobweb in the corner of the ceiling it was quite obvious and a little gross.
