Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Not great
Bedroom dreadful. (Rm 5) Shower very weak and Freezing to scalding in a tiny 1mm turn. Room size tiny. Mattress so old and uncomfortable. Furniture scruffy. Floor in bathroom lifting. Desperately needs renovation. Full Breakfast good. Unfortunately the receptionist on arrival seemed miserable and didn’t even say hello welcome us or smile just asked for credit card. Not a great experience for the amount charged.

Enjoyable weekend
Good stay right in the centre of St Andrew's. Quiet boutique hotel with friendly staff. Breakfast both mornings was excellent. Room was comfy albeit a bit small. Some of the furniture looked tired. The TV and WiFi signals were a little hit and miss at times. Overall a good stay and can't fault the staff.

Lovely breakfast room overlooking a delightful walled garden and very delicious well prepared options. Lots of on street safe pull-in parking spaces. Easy walk to historical buildings, shopping, and dining venues. Would definitely recommend this hotel if you're coming to St Andrews.
