Good location, friendly staff

Was a bit hot at night, did have a fan but could’ve been a bit cooler.

An absolute lovely hotel in a excellent location. We didn't have air conditioning and apparently, that is the norm in Scotland. However, we outsiders do not know that air con is not standard. I may have missed it when booking but perhaps putting it in bold so we know there isn't airconditioning. I will say though, the staff was extremely accommodating- they brought me a portable one the minute I brought my concern to them.

No view from our room but that's ok. It's expected. No air con.

מלון מצויין ובמיקום מעולה.

המיקום היה מעולה והחדר היה מרווח מאוד. המיטה מאוד נוחה, ותודה לצוות המלון שסידר לנו מיטה זוגית בחדר.

בחדר לא היה מזגן, ורק בדיעבד הבנתי שהחדר שהזמנתי הוא ללא מזגן. לכן אני לא מדרג נמוך את החדר.

Posizione molto comoda e centrale. Ben servita.stanza comoda per spazio e servizi.presente teiera elettrica con the e caffè , frigo,e in bagno ottimi dispencer di shampoo doccia schiuma e crema corpo.ottimo il distributore di acqua al piano

Migliorerei la colazione. Cornetti e brioche erano completamente freddi e non vi era modo di scaldarli. Darei la possibilità anche di yogurt greco. Migliorerei le parti in comune che danno idea di hotel trasandato x nulla in linea con le stanze che sono invece ben curate
