Scots to put up with terrible hotel (5)
I believe the answer is:
thole
'scots to put up' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'terrible hotel' is the wordplay.
'terrible' indicates anagramming the letters.
'hotel' with letters rearranged gives 'THOLE'.
'with' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for thole that I've seen before include "Pin to hold an oar in place, in hotel?" , "Oar's fulcrum" , "something pivotal" .)
