“dated dirty wouldn't recommend it and certainly wouldn't return”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 July 2011
1
person found this review helpful

room was dated with dirty sheets that didn't get changed in three nights nor did the carpets get hoovered. The bedspread and curtains where dirty and stained. The bedspread almost certainly doesn;t get laundered each time guests leave. bathroom was tiny. no bath, the door had broken off the shower cubicle and had been replaced with a curtain that didn't reach the floor and let water leak if the shower head pointed the wrong way, the towel ring fell off the wall. Breakfast was hot yet minimal. The bar was there but never opened all weekend. All in all this is a b&b not a hotel. The welcome was warm and friendly and the service at breakfast was swift. beware if you like to lie in as breakfast is only served between 8am and 9am. Check in isn't until 14.30 although check out is much earlier. The £60 per room per night plus £7 per person for breakfast it is definitely way over priced.

“Faded Elegance”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 October 2010

This hotel is in a great location,and has great potential,but,there were some problems
a lack of ready HOT WATER being one of them
Ayr itself is a really nice town and well worth a visit

“a hidden gem”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 September 2009

I have always been a fan of tripadvisor and they're candid reviews but having read the last couple on this hotel I have to say I totally disagree with them. This place is a truly hidden gem, if your looking for the corporate brand where they're out to screw every penny out of you and treat you like cattle then stay elsewhere, this has the charming independent feel and the hosts are one of the nicest, kindest people I have ever met who certainly go out their way to make your stay enjoyable.For what you get its a steal at the price they charge!!

“Wouldn't stay here again”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 July 2009

Beds were very uncomfortable and lumpy. The room was small, pokey and old-fashioned; which was a huge difference to the bedroom images shown on the hotel's website. Breakfast was the only meal served. The bar was empty for the entire duration of our stay. There was no private parking.

In response to the review left twice by the same guest and titled "I wouldn't stay here again"- if any prospective guests would like a photograph taken on the day of your enquiry of this "dreadful room" then please email and one will sent immediately to put your mind at rest.
