Lovely staff, we felt like part of the family when we left! The room was large, lovely big tv, comfy bed, lovely shower and bathroom. Our room and everywhere in the hotel was spotlessly clean, a credit to the staff. Breakfast was lovely and well stocked with the usual cereals, croissants and a selection of hot food. The hotel is 5 mins from the Metro Centre by car or 15 mins walking. This really is one of the best hotels we’ve ever stayed in!

Very very friendly staff. All were excellent and very helpful.
Great location. Very fair price. Tidy hotel. Decent free breakfast included.

Only downsides:

No ev chargers (not the end of the world as metrocentre is nearby and has plenty)
No AC in the room
Carpark could get quite full and didnt seem the most secure
My biggest pet peeve is the lack of power sockets at both sides of the bed. Not the only hotel i’ve stayed at with this issue! I just have no idea who decided to design hotel rooms like this.

Overall very useful stopover for a trip to Scotland.

Good value stay, with an ok breakfast. Our only complaints were the beds were a bit small, and you could only get heating to run for 2 hours maximum. Our room was like a fridge when we arrived at 9pm. We got it comfortable by 11pm, then realised at midnight we were freezing as the heating had cut out, so we had to turn lights on and reset the timer for another two hours of heat. All felt a bit Dickensian. Reception seemed a bit grumpy when we arrived, but check in was otherwise ok. Breakfast manager was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was fine for a freebie.

On arrival my wife and I and our dog were greeted by extremely friendly staff. A present of a doggy bag contains two treats, pop bags and a tennis ball was given to us. Very thoughtful. Today there are so many places that say they are dog friendly but are only dog tolerant. Not so here. She was allowed to be with us while we sat for a coffee and for breakfast in the morning. Staff could not have been nicer and made our stay with remembering. The room was as you would expect. Basic and budget. It was very clean and tidy and the bed was very comfortable. It's a no cash hotel which does fine when purchasing extras drinks or snacks.
Breakfast was basic but of a good standard.
Considering most other hotels charge minimum £20 per person for it then it really was a great deal to be included in the price of the stay.
Given the amount of cleaning that was going on I did wonder about the £30 additional charge for our small dog. I don't think that there would be more of an additional clean of the room to justify that amount. That's just a small things and we would definitely go back there.

Breakfast was poor, everything was dry, gross, stale and I barely ate. Cutlery was dirty as were the plates and tables. Staff were no help and not friendly. Simply told us the bare minimum and to crack on ourselves, didnt even get seated for breakfast the woman walked off. Hotel room was meh, hairs on the bed, dirty glasses, the bathroom stunk had to keep the door closed. Water was awful and smelt awful too couldn’t even brush my teeth with it because of the smell. Ive stayed at multiple of this companies hotels and this one is definitely the worst by far. Total crap, fully regret my stay. Will never return to that location, waste of a couples weekend and £100. £100 FOR LESS THAN 24 HOURS IN HOTEL THAT LOOKS BARELY GOOD ENOUGH FOR A COUNCIL ESTATE
