    The noise from the the road - checked 3 times to make sure the window was actually closed (it was) and the noise from the room next door.

    Great hosts and the renovations they have completed are fantastic. The food was great and everything was good value for money.

    There is road noise in the rooms at the front of the hotel. It is still being upgraded, and there are some things needing completion.

    It was a budget, enroute stopover, and as such was a gamble. It was good to see that renovations were underway, and we enjoyed a new shower room. The owners and staff are very kind. The restaurant is vegetarian and alcohol free. We did enjoy a lovely breakfast. The owner kindly gave us a 2nd choice of room in the cottage to the rear, away from road noise.

    We had to ask for another bath and hand towel. There was no marmalade for the toast. We also had to make sure the water from the shower didnt spill over and flood the bathroom. The toilet seat would not stay up. The room was so cold we had to have an extra duvet as the one on the bed was a summer one. We borrowed a couple of hot water bottles from our daughter. The heating didnt work. The first electric heater had a dent so we got another one. Which was slightly better. The tv didnt work altho we asked several times for it to be fixed. The hotel was locked up for most of the time. It was a case of trying to get them on the phone.

    The location was ideal as we were near family We were allowed our dog in the bedroom and that was a big plus. Not many hotels seem to allow that Not much selection for breakfast The staff did their best to make our stay a good one. Ate in the reataurant for breakfast and was satisfied. i had toast in the bedroom and was satisfied.

    The place was all closed down we actually thought we had been scammed. The lady came over from another building and unlocked front door and showed us to our room. The room wasn't very clean with hairs in the bath shower screen hadn't been cleaned. Was supposed to be a deluxe room but there were holes in the walls and pen marks everywhere. TV was small and the furniture was old. Nothing deluxe about it. If it was advertised as a budget double would have been better. Breakfast was included but we didn't actually have anything as we weren't Hungry but did smell good.

    Easy to book. The lady was very friendly.

    Reasonably cheap place to stay with few issues

    • Standard Twin Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    Rooms in desperate need of upgrades - holes on the walls from previous lamps/fittings, old paint, and not been cleaned for a while (one of the rooms even had "clean me" written with a finger by some previous guests on the shelves). Rooms at the back of the hotel nice and quiet, but rooms next to the road are very noisy due to the traffic. TV was not working in one of the rooms - went downstairs to speak to someone, only to find that the doors were already locked and no-one was in. No food during a day in the hotel, but there are options nearby.

    Price was good for two rooms, and the rooms were quite spacious, there is parking on site and the hotel is directly next to the main road between Glasgow and Dumbarton/Balloch. Bathrooms were recently upgraded by the looks of it, and they were looking much better than the rest of the room.

    Location not good if coming from Erskine Bridge owing to being on a dual carriageway with no right turn access.Could take about 10 mins to find a route to get on the Glasgow side to access property. A blind on the bathroom window ---although frosted glass ---would have afforded more privacy. We had to ask for soap and plugs for the bath and washhand basin which were not very effective. Requires an upgrade to provide evening meals.

    Room was ok,;beds comfy. Breakfast not bad. The only staff member we saw was pleasant and helpful.

    There was only one young lady about for almost our entire stay. No attempt was made to service the bedroom throughout our stay, and breakfast was very limited, although adequate.

    The bedroom we occupied was recently updated and had a lovely bathroom and new carpet. It was also of a good size.

    Hotel is under refurbishment and even though we had new carpet in our room the walls were filthy with random stains. The bathroom had mildew around the tub.

    Plenty of parking and just on the outskirts of town.

    Despite a message at the time of booking saying we were bringing our two dogs and could we have a ground floor room in the farmhouse (easier for letting the dogs in and out) we had been allocated a no dogs allowed room in the main building. They found us a first floor room in the farmhouse but there was no milk and by the time I went across for some (around 9pm) the main building was locked up and in darkness. There was only one set of towels for two people too.

    We’ve stayed here a few times before to break our journey down from Skye to Yorkshire. It’s convenient as right on the route into Glasgow and our dogs stay for free.

    I waited for 35 minutes for check in. Booking.com showing checkin time till 11pm. I reached 10.30pm , kept calling for more than 20 times , he replied after 35 minutes , I was about to cancel via booking.com and go. Anyhow we checked in at last.

    It was in our way. And worth saving time when we planned to travel in day time onward Loch Lamond , lonch ness. Spent a night here. Hotel is just okay.

    Needs a refurbishment to bring it up to date. Also replace the mattress. Rear door left open at night.

    The hotel was ideally placed on our route from Skye. The room was OK alittle dated due to dark wood fittings. Staff were pleasant and the breakfast choice good.
