Bargain, totally central
Pros:

Always a good stay, clean, central, only thing, no lift.

Cons:

I'm getting older and can't manage the top floor anymore with all those stairs, it's a shame, I love staying there.

Fab hotel
Pros:

We loved how close it was to the train station and all the shops. The staff are so lovely, especially the young lady who always made sure everything was okay with us and asked if we needed anything else before we left for the day. We like the family room with a lovely view. The shower was excellent!! Everything was super clean!! Beds are comfortable i wish I could take the beds home with us

Cons:

It would be greatly appreciated if mini-fridges and microwaves were available in the rooms. As we were staying for several nights, these amenities would have been ideal for storing our food and allowing our children to enjoy warm suppers than going out. Aside from this, we have no other complaints.

Clean hotel and easily accessible
Pros:

Close to the bus station and ferry. Nice clean bedding and room. I felt happy staying here as a solo traveller.

Cons:

I only think it needs a towel rail as no where to hang wet towels.

Good location, excellent value. Would recommend.
Pros:

The entrance isn’t very promising but don’t let that put you off. The stairs suggest a building that was once rather grand and when I got to the room it was such a surprise - not the single I’d booked but a very large family sized room and large bathroom with bath, shower etc. Everywhere was absolutely spotlessly clean. There was a TV and tea and coffee making equipment and a hairdryer. The room faced the main road but was very well soundproofed with virtually no traffic noise. The bed was extremely comfortable. It’s right next to the harbour and less than 5 minutes walk from Aberdeen station. OK if you’re looking for 5 star luxury this isn’t it but it’s fantastic value for money and in a very convenient location. I spent 2 nights there and would definitely stay again when I’m next in Aberdeen.

Cons:

Nothing.
