What an amazing find. So clean, well equipped and the staff were very friendly. Our room was nearest to the roadside and was very quiet on the first night. Second night (midweek) the road was much busier and there was an extremely loud helicopter overhead at around 5am, presumably heading to the nearby hospital. This wouldn't stop me booking again though.

Great welcome and people. Nice big room with good amenities. Would like a recycling bin for bottles etc. The towel holder in the bathroom fell off the wall and hit me in the foot - a wee screw in the base of that would stop it happening again. Comfortable mattress, sheets like cardboard. Very clean sheets. Everything i needed was there and the place was so close to the hospital, super convenient.
