This hotel is a bit drab but the beds are comfortable. The breakfast was not that great (although coffee was good). Sliced bread, canned fruit, average sliced cheese and salami, etc. Staff did not clean tables between parties, so we had to sit at a messy table. We were not allowed to take a cut of coffee to our room. Bartender and front desk staff were very friendly.

Hair all over bed and in bathroom in the shower on the wall and round the toilet. Bed was super uncomfy, the “bottled” still water was tap water. Under average for quality, cannot complain about the price it shows in the facilities and condition.

The hotel served our needs well as trekkers well, with an early breakfast, good location for car journey to mountains. The property is a bit run down and needs a lot of investment. Fan in our bathroom did not work nor did the towel rail (or perhaps it was just us not being able to dind the right buttons). Staff were very good, and the owners should count themselves lucky that they have such charming people.

Nice atmosphere. Staff friendly. Problems: mattresses very hard. Tub hot water gets stuck on because the heat makes the fixture expand. Learned to cool it with cold water from the sink to be able to turn it off.

We weren’t there for long as we just stayed the night to do Ben Nevis but the hotel was lovely. Wish we would have stayed longer.
