Directions
Great place to stay on route to the airport. Only one negative....Hotels.com directions sent me to an entirely seedy area which felt very uncomfortable when asking directions. Would suggest this is rectified with immediate effect.

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel gave clear directions how to find them from the train station. Room, bathroom and facilities all absolutely fine. Bed comfy. Proximity to shopping mall was a big plus the next morning. I appreciated the fact that hanging around all day waiting for an evening onward flight I could drink limitless coffee and tea, use the wifi and watch TV. Breakfast was just so-so. Peculiar sausages and grainy scrambled egg etc Thistle could improve this aspect. Otherwise a positive experience!
