King Street Aparthotel

Decent variation of options here. For us, I was a bit disappointed, but may work very well for others. disappointments: maybe I didn't read the information carefully enough. Not a 24 hour front desk, in fact we never saw any staff member. We received a code on a key pad to get in the morning via email when we arrived. No lobby whatsoever, and the business room was inaccessible to guests. Arrival is strict, 4 pm and departure 10 am with charges otherwise. I believe one of the people I met there was living there. More akin to an Airbnb than hotel. Maybe this is common in Stirling or Scotland? I saw signs that said "service apartments" around town, so I'm trying to be fair. But I wish I'd known. We went with the lowest price and it was NOT an apartment - in fact it's a small room and bathroom. The king room bed is smaller than our queen bed at home (USA) and sagged in the middle. No tissues provided. They have a cleaning service that is supposed to be every day but the first day they were in the room....and didn't do ANYTHING - including removing rubbish or cleaning the mirror. So they just stopped by to....look at our stuff? Great aspects: spotless clean and while room was small we found it efficient. A/C was perfect, In fact everything in the room and locks was in working order. They have a fitness room with a few machines (no treadmill) but no water or anything to wipe down machines after using. Quiet. Fabulous location. Nice coffee machine and kettle with a nice glass jar of milk provided in small refrigerator. To summarize: Not a hotel. Not necessarily an apartment, could be a cosy room and a fitness room available.
