Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Dining scores below the rest — The dining category received a 6/10 from guests, the lowest of all ratings, suggesting the food and drink experience may not match the rest of the stay.
- Aging communal areas — Some guests note the lifts and stairwell feel dated, even though the rooms themselves are well kept.
- Limited TV channels for international guests — One guest noted only five English/Scottish channels, which may disappoint visitors expecting a wider selection.
- No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, which may limit options for travellers with animals.

8.3Verified guest“Really enjoyed my stay – good value for money. The hotel is relaxing and a bit quirky, with decent service and a great location near the shops. Staff were knowledgeable and friendly. The room felt brand new, very pleasant, and the Egyptian cotton sheets were a lovely touch.”
8.3Verified guest“Got the same standard queen room with towels in the bathroom as booked online, which I liked. The location was cool and within walking distance of a Co-op Food store.”
