Pros:

It was clean and comfortable
Friendly staff. Good location for short stay.

Cons:

Could do with bigger and more modern TV.
A more modern toilet seat would be nice.
No potato scones was a let down and toast was just white bread heated.

Top!
Pros:

Fantastische lokale inn! De receptie is tevens de bar waar je heerlijke lokale bieren kunt drinken. De keuken is uitstekend. Kamers goed onderhouden en schoon, bedden heel goed. Personeel heel vriendelijk service gericht, kwam extra vroeg om voor ons ontbijt bags te maken voor onderweg naar de vroege ferry.

Goede stop voor de ferry naar het Isle of Skye
Pros:

Ligging vlakbij ferry naar Skye
Ruime kamer
Goede bedden
Lekker ontbijt
Vriendelijke ontvangst

Cons:

Erg duur voor wat er geboden wordt. Dat geldt niet enkel voor deze herberg maar voor bijna alle accommodatie in Schotland en in het bijzonder voor die in de buurt van Skye!

Very Decent Inn
Pros:

Excellent location not far from Glenfinnan Viaduct, Camusdarach beach (as seen in Local Hero film). Hotel interior scenes for this film were shot in the hotel (though staff were totally unaware of this). Both dinner and breakfast were excellent. Plenty of free parking. Room was simple, but clean and comfortable.

Cons:

Cannot not comment on the smell in the bathroom. Never discovered what it was, whether it's some eco cleaning product or the drains I don't know, but this needs attention and hopefully should be easy to rectify. It wouldn't stop me staying again though.
