Excelente estadía en stirling
Pros:

Excelente habitación; amplia con detalles adecuados al lugar. Limpieza y amenities perfectos.
Descanso placentero sin ruidos.
Parking free (hecho muy importante).
Excelente desayuno.

Cons:

Solo una mención. Creo que con la categoría del house y lo que se paga; no está bien que cobren el capuccino a un precio extra. Me parece que se debería optar por una cafetera de especialidad con café molido a la vista (de grano) con las diferentes opciones y no ofrecer una marca de café y cobrarla aparte. De todas manera excelente lugar de estadía en Stirling!!

Loved our stay and would recommend the hotel.
Pros:

The proximity of the hotel to the centre of town and everything we wanted to do in Stirling was great. There was no need to use our car. The staff members were very helpful and friendly. And one could not have asked for a better location with the property overlooking a green while our bedroom windows looked onto the garden. Beautiful sitting area and breakfast room.

Cons:

As a vegan (Riana) the typical breakfast options on the menu did not truly accommodate my eating regime. The coffee needs to be much better - it was often too weak.
