smashing stay

comfortable bed blackout curtains helpful staff

i found a very comfortable bed paired with blackout curtains! breakfast was good with a friendly, helpful staff. the bathroom was a good size, and i enjoyed the biscuits and a tunnocks tea cake provided, just perfect with a cup of tea in the room.

I noticed some crumbs on the chairs in the restaurant. It could be helpful to clean the chairs more thoroughly. it's a minor detail, but attention to cleanliness in all areas improves the overall experience.

I had a standard double room. the room was clean, and the bed was comfy. however, the furniture looked quite dated. the bathroom really let the room down. It needs some refurbishment. the price i paid didn't quite match the standard of the room. i won't rush back.
