County Hotel Selkirk - Great...
Liked: The staff, when they were there, were fantastic. Very friendly and helpful. The breakfasts were superb and the room was reasonably comfortable.
Disliked: There are no staff around at check-in and you have to use a door code to access the front door and the room. The system is finicky and not at all intuitive, often requiring three or four attempts before succeeding. By the third day I had just about got the hang of it. I wasn't listed as having breakfast on my final morning and it was only by chance that there was someone in. All credit to them for sorting the breakfast out, but they do seem to be battling a poor booking system, and not booking.com as it was happening with other guests as well. I think more information could be made available I.e. bar/food times and breakfast times.The location in Selkirk town centre is good and if the above issues can be fixed the place has great potential.

Break away
Liked: It was clean and comfortable and Stuart and Stephanie were perfect hosts
Disliked: It's a bit of a squeeze getting in the main door, the door splits into 2 sections but only when out of hours with access code does 1 side open and a squeeze getting in with cases bags etc.The lights in the room, I had to get out of bed to switch them off

Lovely old coaching inn, top...
Liked: Beautiful scrambled eggs. Comfy bed, fluffy towels, good biscuits, wonderfully quirky building. Getting in was a bit Dungeons and Dragons- I arrived after eleven by starlight, and the keypad wasn’t that immediately obvious. Even once I was in, having got one digit wrong (butterfingers), I heard a lugubrious “Operation failed” thrice. But once I was actually in the room- lovely, as was breakfast and the man who served me it- told me about the curfew, and the Ettrick wolves, I wished that I was on holiday and could explore. Really liked it, spooky but comfy.
Disliked: Just getting in with the keypad. It wasn’t hard, but it wasn’t intuitive either, and after waiting half an hour at Tweedbank for a taxi, I wanted bed.
