Save money a different way
They didn’t have our pre-paid reservation when we arrived. I should have taken that as a sign to go somewhere else and figure out reimbursement later, but we stayed. Barely slept with other guests shouting in the hallways at night.

Good day Jessica, apologies that your stay was not as expected. There was a technical issue with our connectivity with Expedia which has now been resolved. We apologise that the other guests shouted in the hallways, we would put signs in public areas as a reminder that others may be sleeping and need their quiet. We hope you will stay with us again whenever you are in Aberdeen.

Not the best experience
This is what I had on my arrival. Eventually got the issue sorted reference the so called breakfast which was initially going to be a few biscuits. Owner and his assistant need to up their game when it come to being polite to their customers. Used this place many time and I think this maybe be the last. Was due back in 4 weeks booking 2 rooms however decided to take my business to an air b&b. The breakfast issue was sorted however this situation has left a bad taste and it’s the owner loss. They even had a dig as I took a complimentary mint at the desk. The room was not replenished with tea bags. They took all the biscuits away, thinking try to prove a point! When I did get a box of cereal I was given no bowl or spoon. When I asked for milk for the cereal I was told there was milk, it was the small tubs for the tea lol If you provide a service it should be of a standard even if you think your rate is cheap and manners go a long way!

Good day Gavan,Trust you are well. We informed you that since the Milk was needed in the morning, we would keep it in the fridge for you till then. And i brought you the milk first thing in the morning. The small tubs of milk was for Tea.You eventually took a picture of the free breakfast (which includes a fruit, cereal and croissant) but forgot to post that. We are always polite and respectful, and despite being very rude to us all, we still stayed respectful to you all through your stay. Do have a great day

Breakfast
Everything good apart from the continental breakfast that is not good, especially that you have to eat it in your room on a tray and everything is extremely cheap and cheerful. A bit of toast and some egg is not much to ask for :)

Thanks for your feedback Gavan,We have since commenced serving breakfast in the dining area rather than bringing it to your day. You spoke, we have listened and acted. Kind regards

Stayed a few time and you get what you pay for however this time disappointed as no hot water, no cleaner, no change of towels, no bin empty and late breakfast. The main staff member is always nice and does try to assist. I was up graded from single to double room from day one that was great however all the issues above. Would I come back probably as it is good value and I would hope this was a one off :)

Strange hotel attached to a life centre and church
My small single room did the trick for one night. Needed vacuuming and the shower was not priority sealed so there was water all over the floor after I showered. Breakfast was... unusual.

Everything about the hotel, room and service was very good apart from the bed. The mattress was low on the body side and that caused me discomfort in sleeping.

Not Luxury at all but you get what you pay for
When Making the booking I expected a Near enough Luxury stay as that is what was claimed in the site. well I was pretty disappointed when I got there to discover that it was a converted church and that it was used for local groups, functions and other things. On arrival after finding the building, we pressed the phone retrieve button and eventually someone came to book us in, straight away without asking or showing us the room which we booked he then told us he was changing our room to another seemingly better room and not upstairs but downstairs so would save us going upstairs. Well if that was a luxury room I was already booked into and he had changed it to a better one...I am sure now it would be prefect. Well it wasnt luxury and it wasnt perfect, it was old and dated and pretty poor looking on the eyes, the bathroom was a bit of a mess, it was old and less than basic and it was cold, although there was a radiator in it which i eventually turned up a bit and it kinda helped. Considering the room and the building, well I looked at it as though you get what you pay for and the cost was very cheep and that was excellent. The dining room for breakfast was the main entrance people could walk in and out, rreally it wasnt a nice place to sit and eat your breakfast and the staff were very unhelpful to be honest. it self was self service, so items were in hotplates in the corner of the room. The eggs were cold and stuck together and looked like they had been lying days

Speechless
Panels on my bed broken. My bed was also on a slant so had to wedge it up with towels as I kept rolling off. Very noisy at night time also. Emailed hotel with pictures to complain. Had the worse sleep ever and was up for work early the next day. Still waiting on response from. Hotel. A full refund doesn't even do me justice. Had a hellish night.

Unusual accomodation
Only a few TV channels working when we stayed this issue needs fixing. Great idea to convert a church to multi use facility serving community in many ways. More places should do this . Staff pleasant and helpful . Rooms pretty basic but did the job. Short on places to eat near by you need to drive in to town

In an old church which is really cool. The staff member who checked us in gave us a tour to get us to our room. The details given by Expedia said there was no front desk which is not true, they just lock the doors after 11 pm. Breakfast was a decent array with cereal, toast, eggs, beans, sausages, bacon, coffee, tea. Room was nothing special but did well for a one night stay. It is a bit far from things, which we knew when we picked it but Aberdeen is a bit spread out so I would go a little more central next time, but was happy with our stay here!

Nice and friendly staff, room was a nice cozy size. Your about a 15 minute walk away from Union Street and the shops. My only problem was that the walls were a little to thin, and could hear a person walking around the room. And then when there alarm went off at 6am, 6:05am and at 6:10 unlit they got up
