Charming hotel in Dundee

Pros: Spaciousness of the rooms, the overall charm of the hotel.
Cons: I would book a room with an on suite next time.
Location: It was a short 5-minute drive to downtown Dundee and the town is amazing to walk around and explore!
We arrived late and did not have access to email or phone. The attendant had to leave early for another property but left great instructions on how to get to our room and everything we needed to know. Nice touch! Our room did not have an on suite, but we had our own facilities across the hall. The room was spacious and charming, up to date. The hotel itself was in great shape and had a wonderful warmth and charm to it. Breakfast was served with a personal touch by an amazing gentleman who also served as the front desk staff. Busy guy! Although our stay was short, it was very enjoyable!
