Pay Modest Price - Get Modest Room
This was a very last-minute decision to stay here, as due to storm Eowyn all the trains from Glasgow northwards had been cancelled, and the earlier buses that day were fully booked up. I was only able to get on the last bus to Aberdeen which got in far too late for a bus home - so just wanted a central cheap room for the night, and this flagged up for £52. The room was very basic but clean.There was only one socket, so had to unplug the television to plug in the kettle, then unplug that to charge up my phone. 2 hot chocolate sachets and shortbread biscuits were a nice welcome after a 4 hour bus journey. Bed was sufficiently comfortable, and room was warm. Extremely creaky floor though - creaked with every step, and pigeons were cooing loudly outside the window around midnight, but once earplugs were in, I never heard anything. Bathroom was spotlessly clean, and liked the traditional black & white ceramic tile appearance. Not so happy that housekeeping staff rapped on the door at 9.25 am when I was just out of the bath, and had the “Do Not Disturb” sign on the door, and check-out wasn’t until 11.Reception staff were pleasant & helpful. Would I stay here again - yes, under similar circumstances if the price was right, as it was still cheaper than a taxi home.
