Station Hotel Aberdeen
First room we got was not suitable so changed room next morning. 2nd room was lovely, big and warm and nice bathroom. First room had a step up to toilet and washbasin which was really awkward for us , radiator didn't work so had 2 electic heaters on wheels which didn't heat the room.
