Nice warm comfortable room, clean en-suite area. Great price!
I had an amazing stay so quiet, cozy and very comfortable.
Cleanliness would have been excellent if not for the massive cobweb over the top of curtains I immediately seen in the shadows.
No safety/handrails for bath which would have benefitted me positively but none the less thoroughly enjoyed my time in my room worth every penny
Receptionist was lovely very pleasant man.

I had the junior suite which was really spacious and comfortable.
The location is good for central Aberdeen but there are some pubs nearby which meant a bit of noise from outside.
Lovely, very helpful staff. Bathroom wasn't quite as clean as it might have been (a mould & mildew remover would fix that) but the room was spacious and super quiet. Excellent value for money.

The bar is closed and the restaurant is closed and I was told there is illegal immigrants staying there so they should not be renting out rooms to the public, that’s why the bar and restaurant is closed it’s a joke.
Excellent custoner service
Room was spacious
No dining facilities

All bedding etc seemed clean, but there were plastered holes in the walls, a liquid of some sorts had been thrown up the wall, and the A/C didn't switch on.
We were staying 3 nights in total. After night one, our room hadn't been turned over while we were out, so we specifically asked for it after night two (mostly for clean cups and extra tea!). Unfortunately this wasn't completed by the time we got back at about 7:30pm. The receptionist was very helpful and came up to change the bedding (but somehow they had run out of teabags...)
The room was very tired and in need of upgrading. Carpet in the room was filthy and the stairs were dirty and the carpet was lifting making it a trip hazard. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Certainly not at the standard that this hotel used to be.
It was a nice stay, however slight mix up at the desk, but quickly resolved. Room was nice and tidy, only one complain was there was a cigarette dout next to the kettle, however it was all clean, that was the only disappointment about the experience, so all in all a very nice stay.
