Enjoyed my stay but tv was nit recieving a signal, i was not offered internet or password and the kettle needed a good clean/de scale these points spoiled a good stay as room, parking,breakfast was good for the price paid.
This an average hotel only provides a b&b service. The cooked breakfast is very good. There is a bar but it doesn't stay open for very long. The room we had was clean, but lacked sound proofing. We could hear everything going on in the next room.
We booked this B&B pretty much last minute without checking the reviews but it wouldn't have put us off as everyone and their expectations are different. Our room was pretty big that a kingsize bed would have easily fit in. The bed was comfortable. After a few hours, we realised how thin the walls were as we could hear other guests in their rooms as though they were in ours with us. The B&B next door uses the breakfast facilities of the Caledonian so there was a lot of noise coming in from outside of guests coming and going. Breakfast was buffet style and there was plenty to choose from. The room was clean and welcoming but it does look a little tired in places such as the bathroom and doors. For what we paid including breakfast, it was great value for money. There was plenty of parking and it was easy to find. Dumfries centre was only a 15 minute walk away.
Quiet hotel but within walking distance of all shops, restaurants etc. Could do with further lighting in room 5. Staff first class. Will stay again. Having worked away from home for 40 plus years and stayed in various hotels I cannot see why there are so many negative comments.
Hotel is really run down. Room obviously had someone with body odour either cleaning it or staying in it previously. I couldn't get the window open to let air in.
I also had to negotiate with staff to buy a drink, 15 minutes before the bar stated closing time.
Good for the price and late booking, but the woodwork, doors etc needed cleaning, dirty finger marks everywhere & the mattress was lumpy and very uncomfortable, had pits in it.
