Spacious, clean, comfortable and quiet. Check-in is collecting keys from a box. There is no reception. I missed having interaction with a human

When we arrived our room had been double booked. It was late evening. No staff at the premises. When I called they realised their error. They gave us a different room but we had to wait 45 minutes, and go to their sister property (nice but under development).
We found this stay very convienient and appreciated the early check in! Coffee and tea was restocked while we were out for the day which was a happy surprise.
Good stay, older property guest house. No breakfast but local coffee shop really good.
Very helpful with a late check in made keys available with the intercom.
Would stay there again.
Lovely and clean, didn’t see staff but key was left in secure lock and had mobile phone number of owner so this wasn’t an issue.
We were really pleased with the room, all recently redecorated.
5 min bus ride into main centre or £10 in taxi.
Would definitely stay again
I booked this hotel for a 3 night stay and I had to ask for a refund and find lodging last minute as the conditions pf this property where very unsafe to stay in. The hotel itself at a glance outside will show you that the hotel hasn’t had a proper update since the late 90s. Balcony outside crumbling, half of the railing missing. Broken glass covered over with plastic. Thorn fitted carpet mended with duct tape. Surfaces covered in years of neglect. The hallways smell, the room is dark and has florescent bulb fixture. The bathroom is like a long corridor ( small that you cannot open your arms on the sides fully) with the toilet on one end and a shower on another with mold creeping on every nook and cranny of it. And the corners with years and years of improper cleaning. I was traveling with my husband and my 6 month old I asked for a refund as I didn’t want to have my baby exposed to this health hazard. The staff was very apologetic and understanding and helped with the refund.
Spend the extra ££ and stay somewhere else.

The location and room were great, right on the bus line into town, but check in by ring camera not so much
Cleaner than some hotels I’ve been in. View is homely, beds are comfy and so many restaurants on the walk into the centre and back

Not a bad place to stay. Very helpful staff.
Only downside was the room (6) needs redecorating, water stains on the ceiling and the tiling finish on the walls makes it look like a big bathroom! Has a separate, private bathroom, which was very nice, tho we prefer ensuite as it's a pain getting up in the night and creeping about trying not to disturb other guests. Had to be careful not to leave the keys in the bathroom as you need them to get back into the room.
It was such a fantastic experience for us to stay. This is our second time staying at Arrandale and it is wonderful. Definitely will come back soon.

Beds were hard as a slab of granite and very uncomfortable. Small bathroom was ok even though door wouldn’t open all the way for the bed and no restaurant as advertised on site.
Nice room... small, but more than enough for one person. Bathroom was very modern. Good TV options. Nice bed. No lobby. Only issue was manager was not there during check-in. It created an issue, but otherwise it was fine.
We had a lovely refurbished new room very nice, I haven’t stopped talking about it and recommending it to others!! I will definitely be staying there again Thankyou Arrandale for letting us stay at your beautiful home x
