+ Location - Difficult to say anything else as I didn't have chance to stay in the hotel as I had booked 4 rooms but only 3 were available so I had to find alternative accommodation. I did negotiate a discount prior to leaving the party members who could stay.
- I booked 4 rooms for the stay for a total of 16 people, when we arrived there was only room for 11. Bearing in mind the trip was for Scotland’s World Cup qualifier against Holland so there were 16,000 Scots in town. The Hotel owner seemed a little bemused by why some of the party were a little upset at the prospect of looking for a new hotel at 11pm on a Friday night!! He finally agreed to allow some to sleep on the floor but at first couldn’t understand why I asked for a discount?? I am sorry to say that we weren’t the only ones impacted by this issue from speaking to other guests. Not sure what happened and we were not offered any explanation. The cynic in me say’s that they saw all the Scots in town so had sold our other room for an inflated price!!

+ The staff was very casual and helpful. The location was great, too.
- There was no shower curtain, so the bathroom got wet every time I showered.

+ Best price for such a convenient location.
- It's not a 5 star hotel so have your expectations set, but you get more than what you pay for.

+ This was my third trip to the Dam, and this was the best hotel I've stayed in yet. Located centrally, the staff are incredibly friendly snd helpful and will go out of their way to help if asked, they offer a discount at an Indian Restaraunt, Kama Sutra, which was delicious. Oh and real comfy beds.
- Can be a little loud, I don't mean the clientele, as we were the loudest of those, but those damn bells, ringing on the hour, constantly. But it is a small price to pay for everything else. I'll definitely be going back to Vijaya.
