Best value hotel of our trip and the most comfy huge bed too. Ate at the hotel in the evening and that was tasty and good sized portions and a view of the sea from room and restaurant. The price was so good, they should be charging more, especially for breakfast. Staff were all friendly and helpful.

Food was fabulous. Recommend the full Scottish breakfast. The crispy brie was one of the most delicious things I have ever eaten. Staff are so friendly. The hotel rooms were clean but dated. The bed is uncomfortable as mattress needs replacing, you can feel the springs. The sink in the shower room is so dinky it is almost impossible to use. Water goes everywhere. Glad we only stayed 1 night. General maintenance in rooms and corridors needed. Dirt and paint stains evident in communal areas of hotel. Bedroom windows rotting so don't recommend staying. Do recommend bar , food and staff. Fantastic views over harbour from room.
