Needs some immediate attention and updates.
Stayed here last year and was happy with everything, however one year on and the hotel area has nose dived significantly. Windows don't close, the carpets are really dirty, the rooms have had repairs and then painted over with different coloured paint. The hotel area felt grubby. The pub/restaurant was decent enough, food and drink was reasonably priced. I wouldn't stop there again however.

Nothing unique.Hotel needs maintenance.On arrival my bathroom tap was running[not dripping) I informed them of problem.it was only fixed 3 days later with a whole new tap system. Hundreds of gallons of water was wasted during my stay.Not good enough for an organisation which is supposedly "Green"The shower is fixed to the ceiling at a height of7 feet.The bath is quite high to step over.Not a place for disabled or infirm.Quite far from nearest station.£14 for taxi.

The reception desk is at the back of the restaurant next door and does not feel welcoming. The hotel itself feels sterile and strange as there there are no staff around. Room was clean but there was a wall being repaired so it made the room look shabby

Marstons FTW
First stay in a Marston's Inn. Would do it again. (and did) Inexpensive option (this stay) and was well situated for our next days travels to Doune Castle and Invergordon. Will make Marstons a more prominent option on my future travels to their area.

The hotel was perfect and the local facilities were great however the noise from the cars into the night in the nearby car park was not so good. I would recommend the hotel but it is not quiet sometimes. Is there nothing you can do to restrict the car park being so noisy?

Location for my event and amenities were great. Only thing which spoilt the stay was a broken bath/shower tap. Reported on the day arrival, no attempt made to fix it so had to take matters into my own hands and tape it up to stop it running or I would of had no sleep with a constant running water

Spacious rooms adjacent to bar and restaurant.
Check in took a while as reception was dealing with awkward customer on the phone. Room spacious and clean with ample power and usb points. Good shower. Reasonable menu although it seemed more limited than last year so when staying 4 nights this may be an issue. That being said plenty of other dining options within walking distance. Ample parking.

We stayed here a few years back and qere really happy with everything. This time the hotel seemed rundown. Paint is falling of the walls in places and it is not as clean. The place could do with an overhaul. The window in our room didn't close you could push it open. We had a Carvery in the restaurant which wasn't up to usual standard either.

For us, the hotel was a one night stopover before needing to be at the airport the next day. So, for that purpose it was serviceable. The rooms have a run down look to them. I’m guessing it’s an old building because it makes some odd noises. The faucet in the shower wouldn’t stop running all night. The hair dryer didn’t work and one of the outlets didn’t work. All that being said it’s a good value for a brief stay.
