The room that we had the shower didn't work properly. Managed eventually to get warm water then turned cold after a few seconds, tried to rectify it but the water shut down completely. Tea and coffee making facilities - only 2 tea bags, no coffee pods and 1 milk pod.

Great welcome by the staff and the property has, in the past, been thoughtfully decorated but the rooms are showing signs of disrepair and aren't well sound proofed against road noise. The TV didn't work.

So far the most comfy and welcoming place I have stayed at while here. This was my first time in the UK and I’m glad to have stayed here. Good room for the price with breakfast included. Only snag is the place is out of range for taxi/uber pickups. They are able to drop off if you’re coming from Edinburgh but best to rely on Eskbank station or a rental car if you need to get back.

Not used to bad food here but it was.
This is my first visit back to the Sun Inn for several years. I stayed 3 nights and ate in on all three. Good points: Nice friendly staff, cheap cost of the room. Normally the dining is very good but! (see below) The wi-fi was very good. Bad points: Battered haddock on Mon was over cooked. Pie on Tues was really good but it cost £5 for some veg. When I'm paying £19 for a pie I really don't expect to have to pay extra for veg. Burger on Wed night. Again the burger was overcooked and in a bun that I can only describe as stodge. Again £1:50 for a slice of cheese is not great. You should also be aware that it is on a busy road and rooms 1-4 are quite noisy because there is no double glazing. Room 5 and 6 are at the back but they are the expensive ones.
