Good basic hotel, comfortable warm rooms, easy free parking - decent breakfast and dinner avaliable. A bit tired around the site but reasonable prices reflected.
This hotel was clean & tidy. The 3 ladies who served both dinner n breakfast truly made this hotel for us. They were friendly, helpful and a pleasure to deal with.
They even organized us a fan it the Scotland heatwave as the room was so hot.
Would stay again.

Enjoyed our stay but could've been better if there was some entertainment during one or two evenings.
Staff were very pleasant, the room was spotless, only stayed one night so didn't get to use all the facilities.
Breakfast was okay, good choice and breakfast staff very polite and friendly
Room very clean and modern, staff excellent - really cheery and willing to accommodate your requests, breakfast good value. Finally great views from the lounge

The lady in the front desk is friendly.
The room is a bit dated. But the bathroom and beds are clean. The bed is a very comfortable one, I had a very good sleep during the stay.
