It was OK / fine but frankly very expensive for the hotel and room. Front desk, cleaning and restaurant staff all extremely nice and helpful.

The rooms are old and our check in was terrible due to their wifi going down. that also meant no one in the hotel had wifi either.

Hotel is lovely, great location close to the Old Course and walking distance to everything in St. Andrews. Our rooms were very nice and large and very comfortable. Please note there are stairs to pretty much all the rooms as well as to reception.
Breakfast was good, nothing special but fresh and tasty.
Service was excellent, everyone was super friendly and had a smile on their face.
