    Location was great-had to park on the street but it was a wider area than a normal street in St. Andrews. Very comfortable sitting room. Washer with dryer was available. Bedrooms a little small but bed was comfy.

    Great location near the centre of St Andrews. All the facilities you need for a stay in St Andrews. Great alternative to staying in the pricy hotels in the area.
