    Excellent staff, nice rooms. Limited parking, but cheap paid parking only a few metres further away.

    The location was great in order to see things within a short drive. The options for eating and drinks were plentiful. I wish they had ceiling fans, as it was quite warm at night. The fan provided was just ok, but not adequate to keep us cool enough to sleep well.

    Excellent location Very pricey

    The door on the way out Pulling up, it looks great. Reception fine, key in hand — all promising. Then back for my bags… and the stairs begin. Then more stairs. Then those stairs — narrow, steep, one-way only. Less hotel access, more base camp assault. Opened the room door and realised I’d paid full price for half a room. That slanted roof? It’s a weapon. I Headbutted it constantly. The desk - Contortion required just to sit down ,another head knock guaranteed. Bathroom ? Never thought I’d have to limbo to use the toilet, but it was the only way as I couldn't stand straight up to use the facilities.then the light unit? A fully stocked graveyard of insects — lovely...not The Walls Paper-thin. I Knew my neighbours’ life story by bedtime. Then Their bed it Creaked with every movement like it was begging for retirement and nothing dodgy was going on, honest. Breakfast mmm Eggs Benedict, my favourite — and yet somehow they ruined it. Bacon barely warmed through, like it had been held near a radiator with two hard-boiled eggs instead of a nice runny egg I said in my last review of another establishment that everything else would be like a damp shed compared to there. Turns out this place IS worse than the damp shed — and I’d happily trade up too it

    The rooms were cleaned daily, the staff was extremely nice and accommodating, restaurant/bar staff super friendly, everything was perfect. Oh the bed was extremely comfortable but kind of small but for me was no issue, but if you're on the taller/heavier side maybe it will be a problem

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Exceptional

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Breakfast was very nice with several suitable options including Scottish Breakfast, evening meal was delicious. Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was comfortable with everything we needed. We liked everything. We were just looking for somewhere to sleep after a long journey and this exceeded our expectations!
