Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Room comfort
While the hotel is good, the windows do not open in the room, and with no air condition in the room meant the room was stifling hot. All that we had was a fan in the room, which circulated the hot air around the room. This left us with little sleep and an early check out to get some fresh air

Room was very warm and as there is no air con the fan provided was just blowing out hot air. Maybe a small air con fan would be better. No water provided in the room, like water to take my medication so would’ve been nice. Staff very friendly and welcoming. Would stay again thank you

Liked: Cleanliness
This was okay and I wouldn't not go again. My room was boiling hot due to warm weather and there's no AC. I was slightly annoyed that they don't let you open your bedroom window more that an inch or two - apparently due to our old friend "Health & Safety". However that same Health & Safety doesn't seem to apply to to being seriously cooked by dangerously hot room. Rules is rules, as they say! Hotel is neither in Prestwick nor Ayr. Breakfast was nice and as I say, not terrible overall.
