The property was clean and good location
No food after 7:30pm.shower has no pressure the water just drips. fire alarm went off 2 mornings. The bar is tiny and run by family so it’s a bit like sitting in someone’s living room having a drink

Great location, in a lovely central street. Room spacious, heating worked well, so cold weather not an issue. The big light in our room stopped working, but they offered us another room. Breakfast was excellent, bar and restaurant also really good. Staff were friendly. Basically, this is a pub with rooms, but it's very comfortable. Other reviews have complained about noise from the bar when they have live music, but we just shut the fire door and it was fine.
Breakfast choice was a bit limited, but then it is low season. Still tasted fab. Would have been nice to have the bed made every day (and the shortbread topped up! ) but that's being picky. Shower door was a bit sticky to open

Tiny room. Many stairs. Room not cleaned due to staff shortage. Excuses not apologies.

The staff were excellent
Breakfast was nice
The bed was very high to get into and very soft,I didn't sleep well as I need a firm mattress.you could also feel the springs so quite uncomfortable.
The shower had no pressure and I had to open the door in order to get water on my back,which was a bit awkward.
The chair is very low,so when you sit down,you are so low the table is higher than you so it's hard to do anything. I just did my hair as there is no other mirror to dry your hair at as the wardrobe mirror doesn't open enough to see in it properly.
It was very noisy with the fans/ extractor on the roof? Started about 7am.

Good location, really friendly and helpful staff.
The room was right above reception/entrance to the bar, and was noisy. Moved to a second floor room on the second night with was much quieter.

Excellent, friendly staff, going above and beyond. I left my coat and scarf behind, and they posted it on to me without charging. Breakfast delicious, evening meal too. Lovely room and view.
No lift, but I can understand that this would be difficult to put in, and there were lower floors.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The facilities were all there. The hotel was very clean and breakfast excellent.
I stayed two nights and it would have been nice if the tea, coffee and milk were replenished each day (I like a cuppa first thing when I wake up 😁)

Breakfast was fine. We liked the position of the hotel and neighbourhood was quiet but the noise from the bar below and people outside at the back below our window beyond 11pm was unacceptable.
Quiet after 11pm.

Staff were great, friendly and helpful. The chef came in early and cooked breakfast so that we could be on the road for 6:45 on both mornings.
The breakfast was good, freshly cooked with local produce. The evening meal was good and reasonably priced.
Overall, an excellent value hotel.
The heating wasn’t working on the first night but was fixed the following day. Apart from that no complaints whatsoever.

Staff were friendly and helpful. There was a good selection of food provided at breakfast. I had the full Scottish breakfast and every element of it was well presented and cooked to perfection.

It was clean and tidy and the food was good

On arrival we were told the hotel was closing the next day so we had to leave after breakfast at 9 the next morning. The advertised checkout time at booking was 11am. As I had to go to a funeral in a nearby church at 11 I had chosen this accommodation as I wasn’t driving. The weather was atrocious and having to shelter from the rain before the service was not pleasant.
The breakfast menu offered yoghurt and fruit. Neither were however available. On querying this I was told it was winter and they were closing soon so there was none.
Noise from the ground floor bar and the customers was heard in both my room on the floor above the bar and on the floor above mine too.
I contacted the hotel management using the email address they sent for comment but have received no response 4 weeks later.

The staff were excellent couldn't do enough for you. Always had a smile on their faces happy to help such as taking your suitcase to you room if you wished.
Food good, breakfast set you up for the day. Full Scottish if you wanted.
The bedroom and bathroom were spacious and very clean.
I would recommend putting two chairs in the bedroom it had only one.

Great location, nice breakfast and good service at breakfast.
Welcome was decidedly lacking - apparently we 'didn't book with the hotel' we booked with Booking.com so it was our fault we didn't book the right room. (We did book the right room and the mix up was the hotel's.) Made to feel quite unwelcome. The room was not cleaned or bed made. The room we stayed in was a bit tired. Overall this hotel is not offering the quality it should for the price we paid.
7.0
Just had a basic breakfast and one evening meal. No evening meal was available on one day and the place was packed and too noisy on the other evening. Staff were friendly and helpful.
No signs of the room being checked overnight on the three days stay. The main down side was that there was a lot of noise from the public areas which was a bit intrusive in the bedroom.
