Balminnoch Vacations from $943

Clean, helpful staff, very convenient for city centre

We had such a lovely stay at Boutique 50. Everything was perfect and the staff so friendly and helpful; they even posted back to me something i left in the room! A great location, quite and safe to park, I could not recommend this place enough.

Very mixed feelings... It's in a lovely quiet location, and the room is very spacious with comfy seating and dining areas. Plenty tea, coffee and milk. Double bed was comfy but sadly it was not what we had requested - apparently Expedia failed to pass on request for twin beds (receptionist did apologise profusely). Neither my friend nor I slept well as a result. Windows are very heavy and awkward to open then need wedged with something, otherwise they fall shut again No air-conditioning but we were grateful for an electric fan. Our main issue was with the level of cleanliness. On arrival it seemed fine but we soon spotted several instances of poor housekeeping: the plastic sink tidy/drainer was grotty at bottom (& had a spoon left under sponge), the microwave had chunks and crumbs of food scattered within, the cutlery tray had crumbs. Some bedside drawers and desk drawers had clearly not been checked or cleaned (the former contained a previous guest's headphones and tissues, and the latter had an assortment of hairs). The bathroom door woodwork (inside) needs a really good scrub in bits, as does the shower rack. It has definitely not been cleaned thoroughly inbetween guests for a while and that is the one thing that would put me off staying there again, but at the same time it is in a great location, spacious and quiet.

Breakfast chef was outstanding complements to the chef for cooking up a delicious breakfast 😋
