really bad
Booked it via hotels.com, went there and the counter told me that there are no rooms available, and then went on talking about how the price i paid wouldn't even be sufficient for the room i got. Offered me a downgrade, and said that was an upgrade, and refused a refund to me. Rude staff, incompetent system. Simply horrendous.

We booked what was billed as a 'deluxe twin'. It was cheap and was the only advantage. It was a 5 berth room we had exclusive use of. Sheets were worn, quilts and beds threadbare. We had to ask for towels and the receptionist seemed more annoyed by his conversation being interrupted and was resentful of issuing a second room key. Furthermore, breakfast wasn't offered as advertised and the kitchen locked so we couldn't do our own . Pretty awful and not an experience to be repeated.

The place was grotty- but to be fair to the owner/ manager it’s cheap so I wouldn’t expect much better. It’s cheap for a reason after all.

Horrible place to stay
We almost arrived to the hotel at 7pm and waiting almost onr 1,5 hours for our room to be ready. The hotel is terrible. The walls are very thin. If someone pass from the next corridor we felt it in our room heavily. I definitely wouldn't recommend it.

Location is close to the city centre (approx. 20 mins walking distance). Free parking available but spaces are limited. Can park in the side streets after 6:30pm. The beds were not made in our room and first impressions put us off so there were stains visible. This was sorted after complaining to reception and on our return after dinner. Was not able to sleep at night as there were noisy guests still talking at 1:00am. The shower facilities in the room was good. We checked out early the next day and didn’t stay the two nights as booked. Not what you see in the photographs.

Comfy bed
Had to pay cash on arrival even though thought it had been paid through Hotels.com,so 3 of us had to club together as nobody carries cash now. Room was not ready even by 17.00. People couldnot even raise a good morning when we came down to leave. Hopefully they just having an off day.

Good.
Good value, clean & warm, with on-site parking (which was essential for me). No compaints. I was there during Lockdown 3 on work. Would re-visit if work took me that way again.

Completely Inflexible Policies
The UK government was forcing a 14 day quarantine period for international travelers during the dates we booked, making vacationing in the country unfeasible. Despite this fact, and the booking being made well in advance of COVID, the hotel was completely inflexible in attempting resolve the situation. We were not asking for a full refund; a credit, voucher, or simple change of date would have sufficed. While many other hotels we booked for our time in Scotland were very accommodating given the circumstances, this one totally unwilling to help in any way. If you book with these guys beware, they value coin well over customer satisfaction.
