March 2025Hotel is well located in town. Our biggest compliment is to the extraordinary and friendly service of Jazeel he is so helpful, warmth, professional, welcoming and courteous and went above and beyond to look after us Absolutely fab! Super helpful and really friendly, a credit to the hotel, For me they were really stood out and took it to 5 stars.

March 2025I was so so apprehensive about this as the reviews are so scathing however I actually really liked it. I stayed here for one night following a concert. The decor, although tired in spots was overall quite nice, room was clean and comfortable. I also had a wee drink at the bar. The bar area is nice and the barman was friendly and was more than happy to take Scottish banknotes! I will add, reception staff require photo ID upon check in. So be prepared for that.

February 2025You get what you pay for. We've stayed at this hotel 3 times as it is dog friendly, well located and quite cheap. But it comes at a cost. The rooms are very average at best. The hotel looks impressive from the outside but inside you can see that it's not looked after. The fact that it's dog friendly is very much appreciated and it comes at an extra cost of £10 per night. The breakfast here is the worst. We've had it once and it was literally the worst hotel breakfast I've ever had. The security guys, I get that they are doing their job, but after a certain time they are very intimidating, asking us questions and checking if my partner (male) knows me ( female), if we are together and asking me for the room number to check if I actually stay there even though we've come and gone from the hotel multiple times per day and they've seen us before. I guess they've seen many things happen but they could be better at it. As I said at the beginning, you get what you pay for. It is a cheap hotel in the centre of the city but not one of the good ones in general. It gets the job done.

March 2025Annual gathering of mates and hotel location, and initial looks, is great. Rogue Bar is good too But paper thin walls, no windows in my twin room, cheap beds, dirty lift (chips on floor). . Waited 10 mins to check in as process is poor , even though no queue. The staff are inattentive, the bouncers patrolling the bar and front doors are oppressive and unnecessarily intimidating. Would never stay here again
