The only way to leave a review is to first make a booking. That's how we know our reviews come from real guests who have stayed at the property.

After their trip, guests tell us about their stay. We check for naughty words and verify the authenticity of all guest reviews before adding them to our site.

The guest house functions more as a annexe of the Caledonian Hotel next door, with check in and breakfast both in the hotel proper. It’s great value for money, with excellent Wi-Fi and TV reception. All staff were friendly and helpful, and the self-service breakfast is great. The location is good, handy for both the town and the bypass, with some parking available at the guest house, and more at the hotel next door and free parking on-street outside.

The room had seen better days, with an uneven floor, peeling paint, and dirty cushion on the bed, plus a very strong plug-in air freshener that I found rather overwhelming. The shared bathroom is small (a tall person would struggle to fit under the shower) and the extractor fan didn’t work, so it steamed up very quickly. The toilet had a macerator or pump with a mind of its own, so it made loud noises audible from the bedrooms at random times! Be aware as well that it’s one single shared bathroom between two rooms, there isn’t a separate toilet that you can use when someone else is using the shower room. These rooms are also at lower ground floor level down a narrow curved staircase, and might not be suitable for someone with mobility issues. There was also loud music nearby until late, even on a weeknight, but I don’t blame the guest house for that. All in all it was perfectly fine for our purposes this trip, when we just needed somewhere to sleep and eat breakfast. If we came for a “nice weekend away” in the future we’d probably shell out the extra for an en-suite room, which looked to be better cared for.

Lovely surrounding and view from our window, although a safety catch would have enabled us to have the window open at night. The mattress was very comfortable. We enjoyed the spacious room, it was very clean and well appointed.

Using the shower was nigh on impossible to get the temperature right. Don't understand not having a shower curtain. Power cut not your fault but why don't you have a generator?

The fact that there were no mini bars, I expected the hotel to provide at least 2 complementary bottles of water per day for a guest regardless of their “Hilton honour” status. This is water, not soda or wine.

Street noise throughout the while night. I used ear muffs; however, they did not help too much with that. If you are looking for a quiet place to sleep or to chill out, this might not be your first choice. Otherwise, it was a good experience.
