Will recommend to my friends, and look forward to returning
Pros:

Location is ideal, breakfast included in price, easy check in,they kept my luggage while I went for walk.
Reception staff very welcoming.
Lovely view over Tay Bridge while having breakfast
Lovely clean , comfortable rooms , also had a sofa.
Good WiFi

Cons:

Only for me personally, I did not have a room overlooking the river. Just a brick wall. (My last visit, and had a better view)
Did not enjoy the tiny glasses for my fruit juice in the morning, would prefer a bigger glass.

Clean, comfortable, ideal location.
Pros:

We were able to check in a little earlier than expected and asked for a room facing the river which was provided. The room was adequately sized and clean with tea and coffee making facilities included. The shower worked well and was refreshing.
The breakfast offering was generous in both hot and cold options and the dining area was large.

Cons:

We were on the fourth floor and it seemed that all the room doors, while self closing, were set so that at the point of closing they all banged shut. We realised that by holding the door to the end it was possible to prevent the door banging but we were in the minority of guests so there was a lot of doors banging through the night as guests returned back to their rooms.

Excellent stay be back again
Pros:

I booked the holiday inn for my friend's that travelled from the borders for my birthday they said they would be staying there again the breakfast was absolutely delicious and the beds were really comfy the staff were really welcoming and attentive

Cons:

The only one thing we didn't like is if you book in advance you only get a preference for the room you want my friends who are married got put in a twin room when a double would've been better
