Smoking on premises and very loud. They advertise public parking but you do have to pay. At about 0600 the fire alarm went off which was a false alarm. Huge nuisance! The towels had incense on them which made them oily, stained & dirty. The fan was covered in dust. It would be a great place if they would clean up around the outside building, not charge for their ridiculously oversized parking lot & cleaned up the rooms. The smoking being allowed in the hallways is unacceptable as well.

I would avoid this place at all costs, it’s a million miles away from a Hilton Express (ex). The staff might as well not be there, ate and drank out as no one dined in the restaurant. Room although spacious are very dated and lacks any basic comfort.

Pros - Room was specious and quiet. Bed was comfortable. Had all the things we needed. Good breakfast. Plenty of parking slots. Cons- Air conditioning not working but given the weather in Scotland, it was not a big problem. Bathroom smelled cigarette. Hotel name had not been changed.

Very cheap, but for a reason…

The best choice of words to describe my stay was adequate. For the price, I wasn’t expecting luxury but I was expecting cleanliness. My bathroom was grubby and smelled (of pee) The main room was also grubby and the bed, was too soft for my own personal taste. The hotel offers no facilities for food / drink and the nearest shop is quite a way away. Cat park was full of litter and several young people appeared to be using it as a playground on their bikes. Unlike some reviewers have said, I don’t think the hotel is ‘pretending to be a Holiday Inn’. The hotel has clearly changed hands and the signage hasn’t been removed. If you don’t mind a sparsely furnished room, grubby bathroom and no facilities, then this place is good for you. If you want something more, stay somewhere else. Comment to Management. If you want to make this venture work, improve cleanliness within the hotel, provide a little more by way of facilities / food etc. and put up your prices a bit.

Needed a place to stay for a night. We pulled into the lower parking lot, which had a sketchy, post-apocalyptic look and feel. Upper parking lot and main entrance were fine. The check-in was disastrous. The first room we were given could not, apparently, be opened by anyone due to a second, key pad lock above the standard key lock. Then we were given another room. I marched my tired family up to the third floor to find that the room was not a double. I had to go downstairs, leaving my family sitting with our luggage, to get the room we had paid for. The staff guy issued us a third card and came up with us. The third room had a bed and a made-up hide-a-bed as the second bed. Not the double we had ordered, but we took it so we could finally lay down. At no point did either of the front desk staff apologize for any of the chaos. After that, the stay was average. Bathroom wasn’t clean to an appropriate standard, but not filthy. It seemed like the hotel was still in transition from a Holiday Inn to the new owners. Perhaps it will improve over time.

Wouldn’t stay here for free.

I understand it’s a budget hotel but I wouldn’t even pay what I did for what I got. The AC system in the room was broken, the handle for the window in the room was removed so I couldn’t even open it to let some cool air in. The room and bathroom had a nasty sewage smell which again couldn’t be aired out as the window handle was removed to prevent customers opening the window. The room, bedding and bathroom were all dirty and filthy. The room had no telephone to call reception about the issues so you have to physically go back downstairs to speak to them. Even the pedal bins in the room were all broken. The shower head was covered in pink bacteria.

On arrival the Reception was nearly in darkness but was met with a smile .accommodation was clean and well laid out with towel and toiletries. Overall accommodation was good .sadly was a bit disappointed that there was NO BAR facilities , Breakfast was also disappointed food was cold as all lids where open leaving the breakfast to be cold and not edible, When entering the dining room there was none there, i had to go to the corner and shout for the chef who came out and we asked him for fresh food, the only thing he brought out was some fresh sausages and 3 fried eggs. So for a full English breakfast at £9.99 was absolutely disgusting, we refused to pay that price for a breakfast that was stone cold and hardly anything on offer, Totally unacceptable.

Parking Expensive - Hotel Good Value

The hotel was as expected for the money. Budget friendly, very clean, tidy and typical size, amenities, fresh towels, ensuite, etc. Room was good, although I couldn't get the air con to work. I did have a little USB travel fan - so no big deal. Very comfy room and the blackout curtains allowed me to sleep in till 9am despite sunrise about 4am! The vegetarian breakfast is a bit limited considering the cost is the same as the non-veg. Was close proximity to Aberdeen centre. £10 parking is expensive, when there's a park and ride you can use for free within 3-5 minutes walk. This probably explains why the hotel car park was almost empty. I think if it was £2-£3 per night, most customers would park here for the convenience. They have 100+ parking, so this surely would generate more revenue than an empty car park with only 5 cars on there, charged at £10?
