Central location, nice welcome from reception on arrival, clean and reasonable price but you get what you pay for as uncomfortable bed, only 2 lightbulbs in room working and no curtains!

Nice central and walkable location but most services onsite were closed. It may have been outside of high season though. Staff at reception was pleasant and helpful for registration. Went with friend and got a singles room ... so we spent a bit of the evening in the room. It would have been nicer to have a larger TV screen to watch during the evening. Otherwise, pleasant stay and friendly staff.

Windows not open, no ac available, only fan. Room required for 3, inclusing a 2 yr kid, just a double bedroom was provided, only 2 towels provided. Wifi and some essential info not available.

Good Afternoon Juliana,I have checked your reservation and you only reserved a double room for 2 people. I think if you had reserved a family room this would have been more suitable to your needs. There is a member of staff in venue 24 hours a day, we would have been happy to give you more towels had you asked.The air conditioning units in our rooms are very temperamental due to their age. Therefore we do not advertise that this is available. RegardsSandra

Thank you for taking the time to comment. As we are unable to contact every new booking we have removed any mention of restaurants from our pages and websites so as to avoid disappointment, I am sorry that you were still expecting these and hope the team were able to direct you to some local restaurants. Our wifi is available in all public areas but not each room, again we do state this on our page so as to avoid disappointment.Kind Regards

Great staff; hotel does the job
The staff were great - very friendly and attentive. We had booked a twin room because that was all that was available when we booked. However, when we checked in we were upgraded to a king-sized room. The room was large with a huge bed. It's not a super luxurious hotel but did the job for us. We were staying for Outwith Festival and 1703 is very convenient for the city (!) centre. The room could easily have been better with better toiletries (sounds petty but there was only handwash and no shower gel or shampoo) and with better fitting sheets (our bottom sheet kept coming untucked so the mattress was exposed). When we stayed the restaurant was closed but there are plenty of options for breakfast nearby. Parking immediately behind the hotel is cheap. I'd stay again mainly based on convenience.

Dingy room, full of spiders. Was advertised as having free wi-fi, but on arrival told it wasn't available in upstairs rooms, despite them being the same price as rooms with wi-fi. Horrible tiny TV that wasn't working/tuned in on arrival. Room was right next to some sort of noisy generator, and view was of a brick wall.

Response from Sandra on 13 Sept 2023
Good Morning Sarah-Jane,I am saddened reading your review.You reserved a double room with ourselves which we provided you with. Your room was inspected and no spiders or webs were found. We would have been more than happy to remove all the spiders you came across if you had reported it to a member of staff at the time.Unfortunately we have been experiencing some issues with the Wifi in the rooms but is available in our public areas. We apologised for the inconvenience this may have caused you.Sometimes televisions need re tuned, these things happen from time to time. The issue with the television signal was rectified immediately.We are situated in the city center with buildings all around us. We cannot change the views from the windows and do not advertise wonderful views.RegardsSandra

Welcoming central hotel, full of character.
A very warm welcome by the person on reception who went above and beyond to help in getting settled in the room. This was despite a party of 16(!) arriving at the same time. The rates were very affordable compared to the big name “inns” and “lodges” in the city but there were a few minor niggles, a blind that was difficult to adjust (partly broken) and unfinished tiling around the wash basin. However, the room was clean and the single bed was very comfortable and soft. The location is about as central as you can get but being down a side street it was still very quiet. Being so central I’m not sure how parking would work but the bus station is almost next door and the train (city) station is only a 10 min walk away.

Awful one night stay
Very poor. Staff were all lovely but everything else was awful. Our room door didn’t shut properly. There was no remote for the tv. They say there is free parking but that is only 3 spaces and all taken up by staff. The wifi code isn’t provided and even when we asked for it the signal doesn’t extent into your room! Would not stay here again or recommend this hotel to anyone

Helpful and friendly staff, clean and good-sized rooms. One sore point—wi-fi did not work in the room when we arrived. Staff had given us another room on request. I am perfectly happy with the end result, but this was only possible because there was an available room. As many visitors’ sites require advance booking, good wi-fi is as important as cleanliness.

We stayed there 2 nights 30 June to 2 July family of 3. Room was very basic, TV wasn't working, WiFi wasn't working, toilet/bathroom wasn't very fresh and need a update. We eat at the restaurants, one dinner/snack very tasty but expensive We have breakfast as well on Sunday, most expensive we ever pay £40 for 2xbacon on toast and some scrambled eggs for my 9 year's old plus 3hot drinks. I not recommend to stay there, and avoid eating for this price.
