Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
I paid £101.85 for 1 night in the National 19th century hotel in Dingwall, Scotland. The room had a vinyl-covered floor, squeaking door hinges and no heating. The corridor floor squeaked as guests traversed it. The tap in the shower was inoperable at 11pm (room 122). So no shower then or before my early departure. Hotel manager refused a partial refund and asserted that I should have called the “night porter” at 11 pm when I discovered the problem and was standing naked in the shower recess. Very poor value, even if the shower had worked.

Check-in was excellent and friendly. It is an old building in need of an upgrade but at such a low room price I felt that that was taken into consideration. My only complaints about the room were that it was very cold due to not having the heating on. The room took a good 5 hours to heat up. The other downside was the toilet fan that screeched very loudly but that was only for a short period of time. The only other slight let down was one item on my breakfast order was missed and I felt the £13.50 cost for breakfast was somewhat excessive. That aside, for the room price all was good.
