Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staffs absolutely know nothing about the area even though it is very popular tourist city. They even do not know where to book a taxi, bus or any other translation. The breakfast buffet was horrible, they do want you to order some hot foods from the kitchen. If not, they would treat you like a jerk. Whenever I ask the questions about the area like tour spots, routes, transportations and restaurants, they told me, “I do not know.”

It's a small but cozy hotel. The staff was warm and welcoming. Even though we didn't get the water front room(which would have been awesome) the location was great.

Nice hotel.
Very comfortable updated room. We had a nice view from our window. They have a restaurant on site and had a great breakfast the following morning. After a long day of visiting the Isle of Skye it was a nice place to relax and unwind.
