convenient location good breakfast street parking outdated bathroom paint patch greasy sandwich
the location is really convenient with a bus stop directly outside. a bus goes straight to the city center. the breakfast was also quite good with a nice selection of vegan options. there was plenty of on-street parking available near the building too.
the bathroom looked a bit outdated when compared to the rest of the room. i noticed some paint patches that needed attention. the bathroom shelf also needed some fixing. a sausage and egg sandwich i ordered turned out a bit too greasy.

The breakfast was delicious and generous. Everything was freshly made. the staff was friendly too. the room was comfortable. i found the scottish breakfast excellent. It was just what i needed to start my day right.
The food cost too much. my chicken pie advertised haggis, but i couldn't find even a hint of it. the vegetables tasted like they came straight from the microwave. They were limp and tasteless.

poor water pressure bright charging light
I must report several issues. the hot water took an unacceptable amount of time to appear in the shower, about five minutes, and the water pressure was notably poor. the green charging light from the emergency light in the room was far too bright. It functioned as a permanent night light. this made sleeping difficult. Such oversights are irritating.

The location was good. It was a short walk to the chapel. the room itself, a standard double room, was well-kept initially. however, the bathroom seemed neglected with outdated fixtures. the temperature in the room never became comfortable despite reporting the issue multiple times. It remained quite cold.
