surprising value
spacious room clean room comfortable bed convenient parking
the rooms were spacious and clean. the bed was comfortable and provided a good night's sleep. i found the en suite bathroom a good size.. it had a powerful shower with soap and towels. parking behind the spice restaurant was convenient.
i did notice some minor maintenance issues in the room. paint blemishes marred the roller blind. a quick replacement would easily resolve this small issue.
Facilities
8/10
the hotel offers convenient parking behind the spice restaurant opposite the entrance. bus stops are located right outside the hotel, providing easy access to the town centre and stations. this makes local travel very simple.
Service

Rooms

my room included tea and coffee making facilities. it also had a tv for entertainment. the bed linen and towels were of good quality and felt fresh and clean after a long day traveling.
Location

access to the a74 is very easy from this location. the location is also suitable as a stop off point . the proximity of the bus stops is a notable advantage.

Adequate stay with noise issues
large room comfortable bed nice shower loud music awkward parking security concern
The room provided was large with a comfortable bed. A REALLY nice shower was available, including towels and soap. The location was suitable for my visit.
The parking situation was not ideal. It was behind an Indian restaurant across the street. Loud music and commotion from the pub persisted until after 12. People tried the door, hoping it was unlocked, concerning.
