First day found the hotel looking very tired in need of a full upgrade. Tools and old furniture hanging about. Not child friendly. Not very clean. Bedrooms not very clean.Bed ok. One of the towels had to be changed because it had dirty marks on it. Staff polite. First days full breakfast was very nice. But second day bacon frazzled and sausages burnt. Last day no egg? Sausage tasted off left most of it. Last night loads of shouting and banging of doors at 2am! Please dont stay here. Needs a lot of work doing to it.

After booking this hotel I found out it was haunted! Maybe I should have done a bit of research before booking but I really feel this should be stated when booking! Looks like they are getting work down stairs in the restaurant but as soon as you walk through the door to go the rooms it stinks! It’s like a musky mouldy smell, the room was even worse! With black mould on the ceiling coming down the wall right next to bed that had stains on the sheets. We ended up leaving.

The pictures on the site do not represent the reality of this hotel. It’s currently very run down and in need of lots of work. We stayed for 3 nights, we only had 3 towels and although we asked for more twice, were not given any and they weren’t changed during our stay. The bathroom looked new but unfinished. There was nowhere to put shampoo etc. in the shower, the floor was slippy (I bought a rubber mat for them) the toilet flush was dodgy and neither the fan or light above the mirror worked. The breakfast was dodgy and the public areas really shabby. Shame really it could be really special. I can’t recommend it and we won’t return.

The hotel seems to be going through a bit of a refurbishment and the only person there was a builder who was told there would be guests arriving. He gave me the room key, told me the front door lock wasn't working and just give it a shoulder budge to open the door and that was that....no staff or anything, just a phone number in the room incase of any problems. Came down in the morning to an empty place with no sign that anyone had been in overnight

The stay was just for overnight on way to Edinburgh. The hotel itself ok but the town was cute walkable and right on the North Sea. Found a great pub and then a restaurant for an amazing dinner. The hotel did live up to the haunted tales as we did experience something paranormal but not scary.
