"Great breakfast, wonderful staff and really good location. My only negative comment is the pull down blinds were quite tattered and safe wasn’t working on check in but they replaced safe door right away and taped up blinds to provide darkness in room. They were very responsive to my room issues and everyone I met was beyond nice and helpful. The Scottish breakfast was wonderful!! I 1000% appreciate that they provided my requested room! Thank you!! I will stay there next year because they are such good people!! And good room!"

"We booked this hotel as it was reasonably priced, central and dog friendly. It was £10 extra for dog, although they have recently increased to £15. Staff were great - doted on the dog, gave him treats, dropped off a bed and dog bowl on our room. Room was simple and clean - kettle and hairdryer included. There was an ironing room down the hall. We never visited the bar and restaurant bit the pictures looked nice! Would recommend if looking for somewhere mid range in the city centre."
