Great value for money

Excellent value for money, easy access into St Andrews and great service. The only negative is that the walls are paper-thin and the fire doors slam so we got woken up by other guests several times late at night /early morning. Breakfast was good.

Flat layout with communal lounge and kitchen shared between 5 rooms makes this a great choice for individuals or groups. Bedroom was on a par with Premier Inn. Very clean and warm room with nice linen. Tea and coffee tray. The en suite shower room and particularly the shower is very small but adequate. The grout and silicon around the shower was due a refresh. Great breakfast choice, hot and cold and lots of vegetarian options. On site bar and bistro.

Comfortable stay.

Comfortable stay with everything you need available. (Need to get a hairdryer from reception and leave a deposit). Cold breakfast buffet excellent, but difficult to keep cooked food buffet hot and appetising from the servery. Great value for money and would definitely stay here again.

Clean, efficient, low cost college housing. Even those long past their college years can enjoy being around young people and appreciate an exceptional value. Although the room is small, it was comfortable enough. The shower is really tiny, though. Just a corner that is partitioned by a curtain, so the bathroom floor gets wet.

Get what you pay for

You get what you pay for, nothing stunning but good enough, had a problem with a malfunctioning room card but was resolved by staff, breakfast was good had the usual variety. The main problem was the little blocks of what I thought were fudge that I saved for my 6 hour train journey back were in fact soap... massive disappointment. Apart from that all good

Student accommodation

Did what it said on the packet. Uni accommodation. Was clean and comfortable. Shared a kitchen with other rooms but not much on the kitchen, just tea and coffee making facilities. A fridge was there to put your cold products in. The breakfast was plentiful with lots of choice. Not good coffee! A large nespresso machine would be a huge improvement. V good price for accommodation that is close to the centre of st Andrews.
