The location was acceptable. It was right on the main street.
The room smelled bad. the bathroom's odor was overwhelming, and for the price, the room felt basic. i found the value lacking, and the strong smell really impacted my stay. It overshadowed any positives.

Wonderful Base for Family Visits

great size new bathroom friendly staff
We are a family, so this hotel was a good base for visiting family. The bedroom was a great size, and the bathroom looked newly fitted, a nice surprise. Staff were friendly and cute, I thought.
The communications from the hotel were confusing. I received a demand for payment in the next two hours fearing a scam.

Reasonably good experience overall

helpful staff coffee facilities free parking slow light average breakfast corridor step
The staff were helpful . The room had tea and coffee making facilities, a nice addition. I also found free parking behind the hotel, a very convenient feature .
the LIGHT in the corridor did not switch on quickly enough. I noticed two steps and unfortunately had a fall. the breakfast was average, not with a great choice if you did not want a cooked breakfast.

Lovely Stay in Scotland

central location friendly staff
Central location was amazing, with parking behind the hotel. The staff was friendly. I saw a bar and real fire. I was grateful for the gluten-free lager on tap and an allergy-friendly menu. The team was helpful.
I did notice one dirty, torn towel in the bathroom, which I reported. The receptionist acknowledged it but seemed unconcerned. More attention to detail there would be appreciated.
