The hotel gifted me champagne upon arrival. My room included a complimentary mini bar that I found good. The location proved quite convenient, close to the train station.

The bathroom was quite small! After showering, a lot of water stayed on the floor. The entrance felt strange. It was located on the 7th floor.

The hotel location allowed easy access to and from the train station. All adventures were a short walk. the staff was very friendly! i loved the complimentary snacks and drinks. Such a nice touch. the coffee machine in the room was convenient. the minibar had scottish products!

The rooftop bar requires reservations, so without one, hotel guests might not get in. A separate lounge would be beneficial.
