    Couldn't recommend more for taking strolls

    Charming room, delightful breakfast, with cozy décor and a delicious full Scottish breakfast that fueled our adventures while being conveniently located near bus routes for easy city access.

    All was good.

    Unique Experience with Room for Improvement

    Our stay had its quirks, like the charming decor and cozy vibe, but I wish communication had been better. Breakfast options were simple. consider trying the local cafes instead for a break from the norm. Ensure parking arrangements are clarified beforehand.

    Charming decor, breathtaking city views, unique self-service breakfast style

    Bathroom size felt cramped and limited, Wi-Fi connectivity inconsistent in certain areas – a major annoyance!!! After hours, staff presence was lacking, leaving no one to address concerns or questions!!! Parking was a hassle due to limitations – frustrating!!!

    spacious family room
    stylish decor
    limited parking

    The family room offered a generous amount of space with exceptionally comfortable beds, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. The stylish decor showcased quality design elements that enhanced the overall experience, creating a relaxing yet elegant environment.

    While the guest experience was largely positive, I found that the parking situation might pose a challenge, as spaces were limited and could fill up quickly. the walk to the city center, although manageable for some, may feel a bit lengthy for those who prefer more immediate access to attractions and dining options. Wi-Fi connectivity seemed inconsistent in certain areas, which could be a hassle if staying for work or leisure internet use.

    limited parking
    walking distance
    nearby street noise

    A delightful place for a family getaway, conveniently located about 20-25 minutes on foot from the city center, with bus services nearby. The rooms are spacious and meticulously clean, complemented by a spotless bathroom. Friendly staff enhance the experience, and the breakfast options, including delicious cereals, add a nice touch. Limited parking and proximity to the streets can be challenging, but it didn't overshadow the pleasant stay.

    comfy rooms
    great breakfast
    clean facilities
    shared bathroom delays

    Had an awesome time with my friends! The breakfast was a highlight, and we loved how clean everything was. We took a fantastic hike nearby and also tried biking along the scenic trails. It’s a great spot, just a short bus ride to the city center. Steven was super friendly, and we appreciated the comfy rooms. Definitely a good pick for a getaway!

    The only downside was a little inconsistency with bathroom access. We faced some delays due to another guest hogging it for too long, which was frustrating.

    Lovely cozy spot

    We stayed for 4 nights in a great location. A breezy 20 mins walk to the city center. The staff was super friendly, and the breakfast was solid! Our room was nice and clean, but parking spots were pretty limited. can't complain too much!

    shared access

    The breakfast at Martins was absolutely smashing! Fresh salmon and a spread that made my taste buds dance. Plus, the comfy Double Room En Suite made crashing after a foodie adventure so much sweeter.

    Only hiccup was a bit of a queue for the shared bathroom, but nothing to ruin the vibe! This place still shone brighter than a Scottish sun.

    Charming, Charming, Charming

    The moment I walked in, I was greeted by the delightful sound of tea being poured and the aroma of fresh biscuits—pure bliss! My room, elegantly decorated, offered stunning views of the sunset that made each evening feel like a celebration. And let’s not forget the complimentary bubbles for my special day—what a personal touch that made me feel truly cherished!
