Guest Reviews

• Maritemko (10/5): -
• Lesley (9/5): Comfortable three days - Breakfast was always cooked fresh when arriving in the breakfast room. It was no problem getting more tea. Great location, as I could leave the car there in the evening and walk into town for evening meal. As a woman I could have felt a bit vulnerable in the bedrooms in the annexe but was not worried as I knew Elgin

• jason (8/5): -
• Frdz (5/5): good breakfast - Very clean, very goid breakfast , good shower The last minute ( 30.mon befire arrival) change to the room i had booked specifically from a large family room with twin beds to quite a small room with one small double bed. I slept on mattress on floor which was very clean but was not a bed.
• Shaun (8/5): -
• Sarah (8/5): - Breakfast. Location.
• Emily (10/5): - Was very central just a two minute walk from the town centre. Was absolutely spotless! Lovely cooked breakfast with friendly staff
• Graham (8/5): perfect for a 2 night stay, great central location - Excellent breakfast and location all good
• Robert (8/5): -
• Jayne (9/5): Good base for other locations and good if you are working in Elgin - Helpful staff at breakfast & check-in. Was given a lower floor room due to the amount of bags I had. Lots of storage in the room. Not massive but plenty of room for one person. Shower needed to be run for a very long time to get warm. Once there it was fine but I don't like wasting water.

The host, Isobel, was friendly and informative regarding places to eat etc. Nice quiet street, so no road noise, The radiator in our room never really warmed up, and the electric shower took ages to provide hot water. Such are the joys of an old building!
