Pros:

La ubicación

Cons:

El desayuno continental no nos gustó. Los dulces insípidos y un poco duros. Nos hubiera gustado que nos ofrecieran un desayuno más típico escocés o inglés.

Underwhelmed. No hot food as advertised. Room was fine and bar staff were excellent at their jobs.
Pros:

The location and the bar staff were super.

Cons:

They were advertised as having an in house restaurant. No food on sale. I was told to go to the chippy. Also was advertised as including breakfast , but was an extra £10 for cooked breakfast. The breakfast included was yoghurts, pastries and coffee , fair enough , but should advertise it properly.

Proximity to railway station

Ideal spot, very short walk to train station, town center, castle and River.
Pros:

We stayed in Room One and loved It. Offering an amazing view to the train station, and beautiful mountains & river landscape. The room was clean, natural light from a big window, and a beautiful, spacious ensuite shower room. The continental breakfast, included in the price, was more than adequate (all the other guests at the same time had it) a cooked breakfast was also available for about £10.00 extra, very reasonable if prefered. The log fire in the bar area was great!
