"St Olaf location was great for golf. Short walk to Cruden Bay clubhouse. Hotel was clean and staff was very friendly."

"I would give this place a 2- or 3-star review if I had paid standard hotel prices for it, but given how inexpensive it was, I believe a 4-star review is reasonable. There is no security to the check in process - envelopes with guests' full names, contact information, length of stay, room number, and key are left in a front entryway, which was never locked during the entire week I was there. The walls are so incredibly thin that I could hear every word of any conversations had in neighboring rooms - I could even hear my immediate neighbor snoring, and I was woken up by my neighbor's vibrating phone alarm in the morning. I was fortunate to have quiet neighbors while I was there, but this could be a significant problem if your neighbors are less considerate than mine were. There are signs warning that the bathroom door must be closed while showering and the fan on, or it could trip the fire alarm. I'm not sure if someone neglected to follow these instructions, but there was a fire alarm on the first night I was there, and it took some time to get staff to the property to turn it off. My bathroom door was also very difficult to open/close, as the door did not fit well in the frame. Staff were friendly during housekeeping visits, which I generally declined during my week-long stay due to working on my laptop in the room. I was usually (but not always) able to find additional towels and other supplies downstairs as needed. The area is fairly quiet, and easy to walk around."
