I booked to stay here and upon seeing the conditions of the room I Went to the reception to request a refund. This was due to what I can only assume was bloodstains on the bed skirting. The billow was covered in stains. Then to top it all off a very large white plastic bag was tied around the smoke detector. And it wasn't subtle it was hanging very clearly. So they just didn't even look in the room or didn't care. The man on reception was adamant I would get my money back via Expedia. But, nope it would have to be through the hotel and they refused. I can't say enough how much I do not recommend this hotel.

Substandard

This hotel does not match with the criteria in terms how advertised. The front end whilst looks professional the interior/halls were very poor and felt unsafe with my son. Also the toilet wouldn’t flush and the tv was broken. The inside door framed been broken/broken into.

Room could do with some minor touch ups as showing signs of wear but generally okay and for what I paid for 10 nights I would consider value for money. Very basic but I knew that when booking and as I was working away I just needed somewhere to sleep and shower and this was perfect for that. Bed was comfortable, staff friendly on reception and room was warm and cosy. Enjoyed the stay, would stay again next time i'm working up in Aberdeen. Little co-op shop just down the road and the highstreet a couple of mins walk away so a decent location. Thank you for a pleasant stay.

Terrible hotel

Terrible hotel. Spent 1 hour outside the hotel trying to check in (as the instructions said no front desk and I had to check in to get the front door code and the room code) only to find there was a desk. After eventually checking in went to room. Mattress hard as wood and no hot water for either of the 3 days I was there so cold showers....avoid this hotel at all costs

Booking cancelled prior to our arrival unknown to us. Hotel blamed Expedia, reception not concerned about turning two over 70 years old out on the street with no accommodation. This was late in the afternoon. It was difficult to find accommodation which was much more expensive, which we expect to be refunded in full. Very disappointed and upset about the whole situation.

I don't recommend

I chose the option on hotels.com to pay the extra £10 to pay on arrival incase I needed to cancel. Twenty seconds later the money was out of my account. Hotels.com said this was non refundable and were not understanding the option I chose which said put in your card details but dont worry this wont come out until you arrive. Hotels.com said its ok its pending, I explained it would not be pending for 12 days, they have taken it out. They said they would phone the hotel, two days later I got an email saying sorry its non refundable. We had to go but I was worried because I was taking my elderly mother and young son. On the day I kept getting emails saying to complete check in online and verify my card details. I did not trust this so did not do it. When we got there we were checked in no bother without needing to fill in forms online or verify my card details. The hote was dirty, the banister was thick with dirt. The room was basic with large worn areas of carpet, the drawers fell off, the curtains were hanging off the curtain rails. The tv kept losing signal, I had to swap the aerial as one was just lying around. The shower was dirty and there was an empty can left sitting on top of the wardrobe by previous guests. There is a kettle but the receptionist said they have stopped doing tea bags altogether. So there is a kettle in the room but no milk or tea bags. No bar or lounge area like advertised on line. The hotel goes under three different names. The beds were comfy.
