It will do for a one night stop over.
Pros:

Free parking and within walking distances from the centre.

Cons:

Very dated and tiered, needs a good refurb with focus on a good clean. Dull lighting throughout the hotel, bar and restaurant just hides the decor and need for a bit of investment.

Lovat hotel
Pros:

The location was perfect. We paid extra for a room with a hillside view. This faced out on to the carpark. There are two entrances/exits to the building. One going through reception and another one bypassing this and going straight to the corridors with the rooms.

Cons:

Our room was great apart from one thing. A previous occupant with long dark hair had left lots of her hair on the tiles of the shower wall. The cleaner should have cleaned down the tiles if she had done so she would have seen all the hairs. However the previous occupant should have cleaned the hairs away herself as this is likely something that happens often with her. We told the receptionist and she was apologetic. On one of the corridors there are three steps each a few yards apart. If you are carrying bags and looking at doors for room numbers it would be easy to not see them so beware.

Don’t stay here!! It’s absolutely disgusting!!!
Pros:

Old dirty and in desperate need of modernising or demolishing.

Cons:

It’s extremely dirty everywhere. From flaking dirty paint, to windows that don’t lock, to showers that are inoperable, to disgusting carpets.

For a bed for the night, it was better than sleeping on a friends sofa, but at least I would have had breakfast, a pillo
Pros:

Price

Cons:

I’ve slept on comfier mattresses in the military and the pillows were like bits of paper. Shower had a prostate issue and no breakfast available, and you are right out of town.
