Basic but great. No food in the evening and very very basic self service diy breakfast. Dinner best at nearby Radisson. Breakfast on the road.

Comfy stay
This was just an overnight stop, but I would recommend the hotel highly. The room and bathroom were excellent and the bed was very comfortable. The self service buffet breakfast was very generous Such a shame that the owners can’t operate the bar/restaurant anymore due to energy costs.

Good hotel but couple of problems.
Noise due to proximity to M74 motorway. Room had damp patch on roof. There was a constant drpping sound. And there was a massive green fire escape light which lit up the room all night. Bed was comfortable. Breakfast was great.

Short break to visit relatives
Lovely convenient hotel next to the motorway, room was fantastic, big, clean with a very large bed. Only downside is that it’s advertised as breakfast included and it was only a few pastries, fruit and a choice off 3 cereals. There were tea/coffee but you had to make everything yourself as the whole dining room was unmanned. Shame really and shouldn’t be advertised as breakfast included. Only had apple juice cartons in fridge, no orange juice. The only time we seen anyone was when we arrived and then we had to ring the door bell for someone to check us in, disappointed in the breakfast.

If you want just a clean bed it’s fine, otherwise
Positives = clean room with good bed and decent shower, plus good parking. Negatives = check in closes at 8pm, corridors had a bit of an odour(!), breakfast was very disappointing (choice of 2 cereals, boxed apple juice or tea/coffee made by yourself. Some shop purchased pastries in their airtight plastic wrapper and an apple or tangerine.

Ghost hotel
The hotel was basically closed. There was myself and another couple staying at the hotel. There were no staff on site. We were given key to access hotel and another key to access our room. The restaurant is closed. The site advertises breakfast included. This was very limited as shown in pictures. The kitchen was closed so no access to the toaster. Breakfast was cereal (choice of 3) fruitjuice (choice of one), yoghurts. There was a 4pt of milk in the chiller. 2 bananas and 2 apples, a few random biscuits , flapjacks and chocolate croissants. The rooms were clean and tidy and the bed was comfortable with a wet room & shower. Myself and the other couple were put at opposite ends of the hotel on 2 different floors even though we knew one another and had gone up to Larkhall for the same event. Photographs of restaurant and coffee shop need to be removed from the site. It needs to state limited breakfast available. If guests had any food allergies Dairy or Gluten then breakfast would be out of the question for them with the limited choice. The location of the hotel is ideal with ample parking. I understand the owners are looking to retire. It would be a pity to see the hotel close fully. I would have been very worried if I had turned up there on my own to stay and had been the only one staying there.

Enjoyed my stay here. Suggest trying to get a room facing the Courtyard. Some may find the traffic noise disturbing. Great bathroom in my room with a king bed. Had a spa!
