Spent one night here as a stopover on our way home in Scotland, we’ve stayed here before so knew what it was like. For the price we paid for bed and breakfast we can’t really complain about anything, it’s an old building, very tired in areas but our room was clean and comfortable and breakfast was fine. If I had to complain about anything it would be the lack of hot water, it was barely lukewarm but it’s summer so bearable.

Eventually......
We checked in at about 21.00 & given room 110, unpacked our bits & popped out for food, only to notice the door lock was broken and the door wouldnt lock. Down to reception and moved next door to room 109, not for long as the windows wouldnt open (Hot Room). Back to reception to try get another room. 317 was given and this was acceptable even though we had to use a can of deodorant to jam the window open! A ver comfortable sleep and as we had bother getting a room that worked the lovely reception lad (Dale) chuck a free breakfast in for the 3 of us - which was 110% - very nice. Plenty to choose from Buffet. Stay again - Yes!

Lovely staff. Shabby hotel
Staff were lovely - very friendly and helpful. Car parking is free if car is registered in hotel. And car park has 24hr surveillance. Room and bathroom were huge. But - this hotel desperately needs some TLC. Flooring (including the VERY loud floorboards making it sound like there's a herd of elephants having a dance-off on the next floor up!); the windows which wouldnt close; the mildew on the wall near the fire exit - I could go on. I was glad I was only there for one night as I didn't like the look of the shower. Also the nightclub opposite was EXTREMELY loud (not helped by permanently open window) and went on till about 2am. Not usual for a Monday but obviously if you were to stay at the weekend this would have to be your expectation.

Central location is convenient for the railway station. VERY noisy with loud music from next door, WiFi was not available although advertised as having it. This was very inconvenient for me as I had planned to do some on line lessons while away.

Intel is too hot
Hotel does need to brought up-to-date, the room was literally like a trying to sleep in a furnace. The little fan just moved very hot air around the room. The decor looks quite grubby but the bathroom had been cleaned with a stinky mop and although clean looking it smelled. That being said the bed was actually quite comfortable albeit due to the heat I couldn’t sleep.

We booked in for convenience to the railway station. We knew it was an older property and were pleasantly surprised at the quality of the furnishings. Our room overlooked the main road and we heard a lot of external noise. The hotel was obviously short staffed during a busier than usual week due to Graduations at the Cathedral but the staff were really working hard and keeping cheerful and helpful going above and beyond at times. Reception staff supporting Housekeeping staff for example.

Basic amenities in room, was allocated what appeared to be an ‘add on room’ it was a genuine 2minute walk both up and down 8 flights of steps to get to a ‘1st floor’ bedroom at the furthest end of the numerous corridors. We bumped into other guests who were equally at one stage ‘lost’ in the rabbit warren. The room itself was clean and spacious, only 1 light working in the room hallway between the front door and bathroom. The bedroom was spacious, i personally bumped my head on the low eaves twice as they were painted white - same as the walls. The bed was comfortable. There was no mini fridge in the room, no air conditioning, there was two very large skylight windows - only way to pull the shutters down and open the windows was to stand on the desk chair. The room was very stuffy without having these open even a crack. They had to be closed at night due to seagulls - there was no fan or dehumidifiers to reduce the temperature of the room. The bathroom was excessively huge, outdated, and needing some tidying up with grouting, re-tiling and de-scaling, again one huge skylight window which needed the chair from the bedroom to open - no handles or access tools without a chair. Breakfast was pleasant enough, believed it was purchased at the time of booking, but was informed this wasn’t the case. Cost £18 for two adults, standard buffet cooked items, bowls of fruit and yoghurts, cereals, tea & coffee - overpriced for what it was. Overall give this hotel ‘average’ rating.
