My husband and I were so well looked after here. The manager went above and beyond to make us feel at home. Food was just perfection, tasted like a home cooked meal and was pure comfort. The facilities were clean and well presented. If we ever have the pleasure of returning to Scotland we will be going out of our way to stay here again.

Decent hotel at a good price.

Good parking available onsite, a friendly welcome at reception, had expected a restaurant in the hotel, but was advised of local eateries by the guy on reception, which helped. Our room was compact but for one night it was fine, thick white towels and soap/shampoo supplied too. Plenty of hot water. Would stay again. We ate at the India Cafe, a 3 min walk and can highly recommend.

Great staff, shame about the hotel.

Ample parking, friendly staff. Very dated and definitely not the best sleep ive had, bed was solid and creaky floorboards above me didnt help matters. Clean bed linen and fresh towels, breakfast was reasonable but little choice either hot or cold. Bar also called last orders at 20:30.

Basic, clean, comfortable 1 night stay.

The location was great for the station. The check in was via the bar and the man was very friendly and helpful. He appeared to be working alone. The hotel itself although clean and comfortable was in desperate need of updating and maintenance - the gutters were great for the grass! Didn't try the shower or the breakfast. Ok for 1 night.

The hotel is pretty run-down. The room was clean, the TV worked but the beds were very narrow and uncomfortable. The toilet was clean, and there were towels, but again it was very small (shower, no bath).The breakfast in the morning was adequate, but with a bus load of Chinese tourists, the single person at breakfast was overrun. I would not recommend it
