I stay at around 20-30 hotels per year. Never written a review before. This guest house is great. A comfy spotless place. Stand out good. Total gem. Will stay again if i can get a room when in the area. Not to be confused with other nearby places - not a patch.

Very warm welcome, Nice clean room, small but well decorated, comfortable. Added bonus full jar of coffee, two pints of milk ( not the silly one cup cartons) cereal, plate, bowl, knife, fork and spoon take a way menu and train map. Bigger hotels and guest houses could learn a lot from the ABERDEEN GUEST HOUSE. Thank you for a lovely stay. Would highly recommend.
