"Für einen Städtebesuch geeignet.Preis/Leistung stimmt nicht"

6.0

Die Mitarbeiter waren sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit . Der Frühstücksraum ist sehr schön eingerichtet und dekoriert.Frühstück ok

Das Hotel hat den Charakter eines Studentenwohnheim.Wenig Ablagemöglichkeiten im Bad und keine Haken.Die Fenster können nur einen Spalt geöffnet werden . Flecken auf dem Teppichboden.Nicht nah am Zentrum,ca. 35 Minuten zu Fuß.Keine Klimaanlage!

"Wonderful stay in Scotland!"

9.0

The hotel was a nice surprise, cozy with a great onsite restaurant. Breakfast which was included was wonderful.

Not as close to locations as I would have liked but there was a bus stop directly across from the facility

Fantastischem Lage am Rande der Stadt, sehr ruhig. Sehr freundliche Mitarbeiter.

Das Frühstücksbuffet bietet im Vergleich zum Vorjahr weniger Auswahl: keine Brötchen, nur Croissants und Toast, kein Obstkorb mehr.
