Liked: Staff & service

Although a Good location . Rooms are somewhat basic . Unfortunately our room was at the side of building , our window above a road junction , scaffolding and work being carried out on building across road. This hotel was recommended to us by a family member who stays in the area. Three members of our family came down from Scotland and booked into hotel. We were shocked when this hotel did not accept Scottish banknotes , in bar area . Staff were nice but they had to ask hotel manager if they were allowed to accept these who point blankly said NO. We did not drink or eat at this hotel after this incident , deciding we would rather spend our cash elsewhere. We found good resturants and bars closeby ( who all accepted Scottish notes ) Be aware if you are travelling from Scotland , this hotel does not accept our Scottish notes as sterling. I wont be returning , and my family member staying closeby to hotel certainly wont be recommending this hotel again.
