Für maximal zwei nächte auf der Durchreise echt ok.
Pros:

die Lage in einer Grünanlage, das Frühstück die Nähe zu Glasgow, parkplatz

Cons:

vieeeeeel zu schmales „Kingsize“-Bett Zimmer Nr. 4 für zwei normalgewichtige Menschen, man konnte echt nur hochkant nebeneinander schlafen.
Das kleine Zimmer war in komplett dunkelbraun gestrichen. Man fühlte sich irgendwie wie in einer Dunkelkammer. Eine Wand in hell wäre echt schön.

Always my place but not somewhere I will be re visiting
Pros:

The hotel is in a great location and has some wonderful staff and selection of local spirits in the bar.

Cons:

The hotel has been decorated Al over in a brown colour and is very depressing and dull, not sure how staff enjoy working their as it must be depressing at times, the carpets and other furniture are in need of a good clean, I suppose the reason for this colour of brown is to hid the fact that the carpets are grubby as is the overall appearance of this hotel, which I have to say is a shame as I remember when it first opened the colours schemes were fantastic, the tartan used made this a place visit. The restaurant offer was always excellent I would have to say that currently the food offered has no flavour and is very limited.

Fab pit stop on our Scotland road trip
Pros:

Excellent value for money
Plenty of parking
Lovely area - very quiet as we slept with the window open (it was a rather small room and warm ) and we also went for an evening walk and it was lovely
Food at the hotel was lovely and reasonably priced
Cost didn’t include breakfast and couldn’t justify £17 extra

Cons:

Small room but not a big issue
