We booked this budget room on our journey on nc500. Whilst the building outside does not look very appealing, the welcome from callum was very welcoming. We were shown our room on the 3rd floor,it wasn't a very big room and twin beds which must have been 3ft. Divans but unfortunately must have seen better days,there wasn't anywhere to lay your clothes ,there was a wall hanging clothes thing but no hangers. The room was clean but furnishings had seen better days. There had been no mention when booking about the private bathroom being across the landing !! Callum did say he had sent a message to my husband but husband hadn't red it properly and if he had we certainly would have looked for alternative accommodation as we are both up at least 3 times through the night. Saying that the bathroom was very clean. We did go into the bar for a drink and a chat with callum, the bar area isn't that inviting. This is a budget accommodation but if correct information had been given on booking. Com there is no way we would...
   Read moreWe were on the NC 500 and stayed over for one night. The bar was closed so can’t comment on that, but as a place to rest our heads it was awful. On the plus side, the shower was ok and the sheets were clean, but comfortable, it was not. The mattress was long past it’s sell by date, and the smell of the place was very off putting. Our room was not en suite, and was dingy. The walls were paper thin, and the coughing and spluttering of other guests all night was not nice. The place looked dilapidated. I know you get what you pay for, and at £59 this was the cheapest place on the NC 500 route, but I don’t think we did get what we paid for. I think I would rather have slept in the car. The TV remote didn’t work, the carpets on the stairs and landing were filthy, the smell of dirtiness was overpowering. Definitely one to avoid. That said, other reviewers seem to think it was acceptable. Maybe we are just too picky, but definitely...
   Read moreMy partner and I stopped in on the last night of out nc500 lap and could not have finished of the trip any better. We arrived a little curious about the exterior but once greeted inside we were pleasantly surprised by the hospitality and felt like we were meeting old friends rather then making new ones. Vicky first greeted us at the bar and took us upstairs towards the room and to meet our host Callum. He could not have been a more welcoming and comforting bloke if he tried. We checked in and headed to the bar for a beer after a big day. Vicky was great and we threw conversation back and forth all night while inviting us to finish our takeaway downstairs with a pint. Despite a few older reviews I could not stress this accommodation enough, We had the wicks room with a great view of the bridge and everything was super tidy and organised....
