Great little room in a great location. Everyone was super nice. However we were there when Scotland was playing Germany in the Euros… the bar was packed. It was extremely loud. The windows to the room were right on the street and not sound proof. The party didn’t die down until well after midnight. Besides that… the 1 night was great

I stayed in the room facing High Street for two nights, and the experience was great all around. It was surprisingly quiet. The bar is five steps away, the staff was cordial and professional, and both breakfast and evening meals were well-made and presented.

I wasn’t in main property. I was 2 entrances down. Stairs & try opening main door with key. ( dangerous). Up a flight of stairs. Old fashioned key. Had no idea - had to get help! Room was large. Bathroom large. Had to use key to lock my door once in room. Felt this could be a problem if a fire! Breakfast was provided. Waitress was very nice. No parking at hotel. Very inconvenient. Also when checked out - they said Expedia didn’t send my payment. I had to pay via credit card. I thought all my hotels were paid!!!!

Don’t stay in room 27a
We had a terrible stay here. We were in room 27a which was obviously a shop in a previous life. Accessed from the street not the main hotel with a massive single glazed window on to the street at ground level. We had actually requested in March 23 an upper floor quiet room. This was the opposite noisy until the small hours of the morning. We complained straight away but we’re told there were no other rooms. We complained the next morning and were told “what do you expect we are a pub with rooms”. We paid £143 for this room. Never again worse hotel we have ever stayed in. You do get breakfast but not up to much. We will be contacting Hotel.con who we booked through as this room should not be offered to the general public. See photo

I chose a room pictured on Expedia with a lovely quiet sea view. On arriving we were shown to a room facing the street with very noisy traffic. I complained immediately and we were given a satisfactory room with a sea view but still not the room pictured on your website. The staff blame the situation on Expedia. This situation is not satisfactory. People should get the room they chose from your website.
