Excellent room, fantastic location and super clean
Pros:

Excellent room in modern and clean condition with exceptional view of the harbour and seals! Some nice touches with bottled water and biscuits left in the room. The car parking was also good, though a little tight for wider vehicles

Cons:

Unfortunately we stayed during the summer and the blinds were less than satisfactory, letting through an enormous amount of sunlight. We also had a small colony of seagulls nesting close to the bedroom window, which were really noisy at 4am.

Recommend - clean, safe, well located
Pros:

Room was ready on arrival , with clear instructions in the room.
Safe and clean building. Excellent location. Right on the harbour, and close to the beach and centre.
I had booked the suite with view of the harbour, with spacious seating area (with tv and DVDs) and bedroom with ensuite , very comfortable clean bed and clean towels provided,
There is a bar/restaurant downstairs with a courtyard. Just a stone's throw away there is a fish & chips shop, ice cream parlour and lovely bar called Oblo which does cocktails as well as food. We ventured into the centre to indian restaurant 'Saffron', excellent food and service , very reasonably priced.
Had a lovely stay here :-)

Pros:

The HUGE bed, the fantastic shower, and the modern fittings.

Cons:

The parking access road is extremely narrow and leaving the parking area has limited visibility which leaves no option but to pull out to see the road. We were almost involved in a traffic collision due to the lack of visibility around the corner.

Comfortable room in the heart of Eyemouth
Pros:

Handy location near Eyemouth harbour with several restaurants nearby, a short walk from the town centre and beach. Comfortable bed and accessing the room was easy with the instructions sent by email on arrival day.

Cons:

This isn't a staffed hotel (although it looks like one from the pictures) - the restaurant downstairs doesn't run it, it is run remotely with cleaning staff coming in between bookings. This worked fine for us, but it's worth noting if you're expecting a more traditional hotel/guesthouse experience.
