The hotel rooms had some nice extras like robes, slippers, and a separate TV in the bathroom, but they were smaller than expected and lacked toiletries. The price was appealing, but more amenities were expected based on the website description.

The dining experience was a bit confusing with the bed and breakfast option only including continental breakfast. However, they offered a full breakfast for an additional charge, which could have been clearer during booking.

The hotel was a great value for money, but it was noisy as it was nearly opposite a pub. The room felt more like a standard one. The staff were very nice and welcoming, but it seemed difficult to get a quiet room. The location was close to city center amenities, with some safety concerns around the building. The dining experience was not ideal due to separate charges for items available on the hotel's full breakfast menu.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of great experiences. The amazing rooms were surprisingly quiet, despite being located above the lively restaurant/bar; however, they could benefit from better insulation and heating, which took a while to kick in. The service was friendly overall, but there were some hiccups with wait times and cleanliness. The central location was both noisy and convenient, offering great access to shopping centers, the harbor, and various dining options. The dining experience had its ups and downs with delicious food but confusing breakfast options. Overall, a good stay with room for improvement.

The hotel gave me mixed feelings. It was freezing cold, and the room and bathroom were very small and cheaply put together. On the bright side, the staff were friendly and attentive. The location was convenient near train and bus stations, but it seemed a bit neglected. The dining options were trying too hard to be fancy, and the hotel lacked some key facilities.

The hotel is perfectly situated for shopping and dining in central Aberdeen, although the rooms may need an update. Despite some drawbacks, the spotless rooms offer excellent value for money.

The staff hardly engaged during check-in, but David was particularly helpful and went above and beyond to assist. More attention to customer service is needed.

The dining experience was disappointing and overpriced, with slow service and lack of guidance. Opting for alternatives like Wetherspoons might be a better breakfast option.
