Very friendly staff in pub next door, although ecerything from the Scottish breakfast was out of stock. Room was clean, good shower, but couldnt watch tv, or even listen to the radio, as the it kept losing connection every few minutes. Personally i do not like having to check in at the pub next door, no reception at hotel, when you need extra tea or toilet roll you have to ask at the pub not ideal.

Understaffed in the restaurant. Only one staff member during breakfast. Cassie was excellent but should have had support. Very impressed with Cassie. Pleasant and polite despite being under enormous pressure.

The staff were very helpful and polite. The bathroom was in need of a good clean around the soap dispenser over the bath. The extractor fan didn't work and everything was very condensed. Somewhere to dry the towels would be good.

Very easy to check-in. Hotel well placed for the main north/south route. Handy for a short walk into the town. Although next to ASDA , the area was relatively quiet. Restaurant attached offers a good menu, including a choice for breakfast. Overall, a very enjoyable stay.

Hotel is in convenient location

All good when we arrived. Room was well prepared with tea, coffee and milk sachets. Lovely towels too. However on the second day of our stay the room was not serviced so we had to buy tea and coffee. Even worse, the towels weren’t replaced so we had to use damp towels the second day. As we paid the full price for each day I think the room should have been serviced the second day.

Poor stay

On getting there found the toilet seat broken. They did swap rooms for us the next day no glasses in the room the next no towels in the room. The food was very poor the breakfasts not worth the money. Back to the room seemed not to be clean when asked not worth the money per night
