    Nothing

    The location is perfect. Its clean, comfortable and the room I had was very spacious. It was great not to have to step into and out of a bath, it makes the shower much bigger. The breakfast was well cooked and the staff worked hard💪🏻 to make my 4 night stay comfortable

    There was a public bar round the back which was under our room in the hotel so it was a bit noisy but wasn't late. There was also a bit of a drains smell in the shower. The restaurant bar options could do with a few more whiskies. But these were all very minor things.

    Great overnight stop after long weekend in Highlands. The shower was amazing after a wild camp. Room was clean and comfortable. Stayed on a Sunday night and looked around town for something to eat but everywhere else was full or closed early (7pm Black Bull!!) So came back to the hotel to eat. SO glad really as the home made venison pie was astounding. Breakfast likewise was a cracking scottish breakfast alongside a breakfast bar with cereals fruit etc. Overall a lovely hotel for the price.

    Only a very minor point but I would personally preferred proper coffee as opposed to instant in the morning at breakfast. The food itself was excellent and filling.

    Great historic quirky place, friendly and welcoming. Small pleasant, well appointed room, reading spotlight over bed, light over mirror and sockets near bed. Comfy bed, good thick curtains plus blind. Small shower room. Spiral type stair case but found easy to go up. Had a lovely evening meal and cooked breakfast. Manage to park opposite the hotel (free parking). Great place for stop over or for touring area. Would stay again if in area, great value for money. Thank you for a lovely stay.

    Didn't like the sink being in the room rather than in the bathroom. I appreciate the hotel is 'compact' but I would rather have separate facilities.

    The food and service were excellent as usual. The staff were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Moffat is a great little town and the hotel is well placed for walking and the shops.

    Sadly the restaurant in the hotel wasn't open on a Wednesday, and many of the local eateries were also closed or finished serving at 4pm. I plumped for fish and chips, freshly cooked but didn't watch how much salt was added - made the meal almost inedible!

    Friendly family run hotel. Welcome was warm and shown to my room. Very comfortable and clean with kettle, coffee and tea plus really nice biscuits. Location great for me.
