Close to many attractions, dog friendly, reasonabl

The hotels location we thought was great, close to many attractions both in and out of the city centre. £5 parking we didn't think was awful at all, especially for a big city and had no issue getting a space when we were in and out. £5 per dog was a big factor in us booking because it was cheaper than others in the area and we really appreciated this! The room was very clean, housekeeping do a great job. Smelled lovely and looked clean also. It is very basic though, so definitely not the hotel if your wanting lots of amenities but if your looking for somewhere more to just sleep and wash etc it's great. They have a kettle in the room but they don't actually provide tea or coffee as we asked. There is a small hairdryer in the room, but if you need an iron you need to take your clothes to the ironing room and do it there. It wasn't a big deal and was still handy to have the use of. Comfort wise, the mattress wasn't great wasn't terrible either was just ok but the pillows and covers were comfy. Our check in was great and quick and the man on reception was very welcoming. We didn't eat on the hotel so can't comment on that but could recommend some local activities that we thoroughly enjoyed! Overall would definitely use again for location, parking and dog friendly when we are watching my families dogs.

The staff were all friendly and helpful and the breakfast was excellent. It was a shame that the car park was so cluttered with rubbish. We would definitely stay again.

I would avoid this place at all costs, it’s a million miles away from a Hilton Express (ex). The staff might as well not be there, ate and drank out as no one dined in the restaurant. Room although spacious are very dated and lacks any basic comfort.

Pros - Room was specious and quiet. Bed was comfortable. Had all the things we needed. Good breakfast. Plenty of parking slots. Cons- Air conditioning not working but given the weather in Scotland, it was not a big problem. Bathroom smelled cigarette. Hotel name had not been changed.

Given room with window not opening and aircon throughout the hotel off. Given a second room where the handle on the window was broken. Moved to third room with functional window but double bed instead of twin. Bed very uncomfortable.

Very cheap, but for a reason…

The best choice of words to describe my stay was adequate. For the price, I wasn’t expecting luxury but I was expecting cleanliness. My bathroom was grubby and smelled (of pee) The main room was also grubby and the bed, was too soft for my own personal taste. The hotel offers no facilities for food / drink and the nearest shop is quite a way away. Cat park was full of litter and several young people appeared to be using it as a playground on their bikes. Unlike some reviewers have said, I don’t think the hotel is ‘pretending to be a Holiday Inn’. The hotel has clearly changed hands and the signage hasn’t been removed. If you don’t mind a sparsely furnished room, grubby bathroom and no facilities, then this place is good for you. If you want something more, stay somewhere else. Comment to Management. If you want to make this venture work, improve cleanliness within the hotel, provide a little more by way of facilities / food etc. and put up your prices a bit.

Needed a place to stay for a night. We pulled into the lower parking lot, which had a sketchy, post-apocalyptic look and feel. Upper parking lot and main entrance were fine. The check-in was disastrous. The first room we were given could not, apparently, be opened by anyone due to a second, key pad lock above the standard key lock. Then we were given another room. I marched my tired family up to the third floor to find that the room was not a double. I had to go downstairs, leaving my family sitting with our luggage, to get the room we had paid for. The staff guy issued us a third card and came up with us. The third room had a bed and a made-up hide-a-bed as the second bed. Not the double we had ordered, but we took it so we could finally lay down. At no point did either of the front desk staff apologize for any of the chaos. After that, the stay was average. Bathroom wasn’t clean to an appropriate standard, but not filthy. It seemed like the hotel was still in transition from a Holiday Inn to the new owners. Perhaps it will improve over time.

Too hot

The entrance on lower ground was full of cigarette butts and smelt strongly of smoke. Check in was simple and fast, got into room as was hit by very hot, humid air, had fan on, window doesn’t open, no air-con, unbearably hot.

Wouldn’t stay here for free.

I understand it’s a budget hotel but I wouldn’t even pay what I did for what I got. The AC system in the room was broken, the handle for the window in the room was removed so I couldn’t even open it to let some cool air in. The room and bathroom had a nasty sewage smell which again couldn’t be aired out as the window handle was removed to prevent customers opening the window. The room, bedding and bathroom were all dirty and filthy. The room had no telephone to call reception about the issues so you have to physically go back downstairs to speak to them. Even the pedal bins in the room were all broken. The shower head was covered in pink bacteria.

On arrival the Reception was nearly in darkness but was met with a smile .accommodation was clean and well laid out with towel and toiletries. Overall accommodation was good .sadly was a bit disappointed that there was NO BAR facilities , Breakfast was also disappointed food was cold as all lids where open leaving the breakfast to be cold and not edible, When entering the dining room there was none there, i had to go to the corner and shout for the chef who came out and we asked him for fresh food, the only thing he brought out was some fresh sausages and 3 fried eggs. So for a full English breakfast at £9.99 was absolutely disgusting, we refused to pay that price for a breakfast that was stone cold and hardly anything on offer, Totally unacceptable.
