Good Price, clean and tidy

Liked: The staff were friendly, the room was clean and tidy. The price for the room. The ease of checking in.The choice for breakfast.
Disliked: We booked through bookings.com and got an upgrade to a delux room. However, being a delux room we thought we’d have a view to the cairngorms but that wasn’t the case our view was the car park at the back. Breakfast was good although the toaster machine requires the bread to be put in twice before it can be classed as toast which means there were always a queue. The dinner in general was tasty but the restaurant was mega noisy due the kids being allowed to play the piano….. The starters are small and overpriced. The main courses are a good portion and tasty.

Not as expected

Disliked: Signposting for the hotels is dreadful. We were not informed that there are 4 hotels in the complex. We were late to checkin but given no help or direction to find which hotel was ours. We walked round 3 hotels at 9.30pm with suitcases before we found ours.
