A wee gem in a great location
Pros:

This was my first time staying here and the first thing that stood out was the friendly welcome at reception, followed by the friendly staff that I met at breakfast and the friendly housekeeping staff. The rooms were clean and fresh bottles of water were replaced and a nespresso machine in the room also for coffee lovers, there was also tea, hot chocolate as an option also. I would recommend The Scot and I would also come back myself if the price stays reasonable.

Cons:

The only thing that I did notice was the WiFi reception wasnt great in my room, kept cutting out, but this is only a small minor detail.
