Weekend at Knockhill.
Checked into room via the pub , with after hours access by outdoor staircase, as nobody on site when pub was closed. The room was clean, but cramped with two single beds. The continental breakfast assortment was outside of the bedrooms, for you to help yourself, and eat in the room. Overall it was a satisfactory stay.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
The hotel has clean areas. There was no direct phone in the room to talk to the staff. There is no 24 hour staff either. The rooms have no sound barriers whatsoever. We could easily hear the next room talking past midnight. The windows to the street do not block the street noise. We easily heard the cars driving in the street in the middle of night. .

I chose the twin room, as I was solo. The sleeping area was tiny, but really- how much is needed? 🙂 Decorated very cute and crisp, and the bathroom was huge and updated. The staff was extremely kind and accommodating. On a busy street, but I slept right thru that.
