Never again

No staff. Stressed staff. Rude £8 tray service and cold expensive but tasty supper. Breakfast diabolical . No sign of the Stornaway black pudding as per menu just a dehydrated haggis. I felt sorry for the staff apart from the rude man who snatched a pen from my hand after I pointed out that my bill was wrong. He said he’d fix it and marched off. He did not fix it. Silly me I stayed here years ago and I had a similar experience . Thought I’d try again . Doh.

Work stay

It met my needs for a bed to stay for the night, but room service was very slow for ice , had to recall (I know…. 1st world problems). Also the shower curtain was quite dirty, surprised to still see one of them in a hotel. Parking was very poor but there was a wedding on. This was unfortunately under my room but was nice to hear their last dance 😂.
