Couldn't fault the food, the staff or the room itself. But got very little sleep due to lots of nois
Pros:

The food was great and the staff could not have been more friendly or helpful. The room and bathroom were lovely. I couldn't fault any of that. But I had to give a low score due to getting very little sleep because of the noise!

Cons:

My room was at the main entrance restuarant, toilets and the loud voices and banging doors were constant until just after 10pm. I was then woken several times due to what sounded like a loud generator starting up and then there was a number of loud voices outside and a car skidding around in the car park. I must have got about 2 hours sleep when the staff started to arrive at 7am and the noise inside started again. I had booked and paid for 2 nights but left after one night. No refund for the room offerred but they did refund the next days breakfast after I asked. I would definitely recommend for a meal but not for an overnight stay unless you are a heavy sleeper. Or maybe the other rooms upstairs/away from the entrance/carpark are quieter!

Super staff, excellent quality and choice of dinner.
Pros:

The staff are all polite, positive and cheerful. The food was delicious and the evening meal was outstanding.
Room was smallish but plenty hot water and a comfy bed.
It's a dog friendly hotel.

Cons:

We stayed in late January and the bar restaurant area was rather chilly. We were a party of 4 and after dinner we continued to sit and played cards but it wasn't a comfortable temperature. My feet were freezing by bedtime.

Adequate for a short stay… don’t book for a fortnight..!
Pros:

Just be aware there is a double room situated next to the restaurant’s gents toilets, overlooking the car park.
Room 3, which is what I got.
Plenty good enough, but pretty small and we probably got put there because we had the dog with us.
Anyway, the staff were faultless, the room was clean and warm, so all in all, good enough.

Cons:

Proximity of the gents.

Schlussendlich ganz ok, da wir nur zum schlafen da waren.
Pros:

Das Frühstück war wie immer in Grossbritannien reichhaltig mit guter Auswahl.

Cons:

Das Zimmer war sehr klein, v.a. das Badezimmer, wo es kaum Ablagefläche gab. Auch die Unsitte mit einem Spülbecken mit getrennten Kalt- und Heisswasserhahnen ist ein Ärgernis. Die Ablage über dem Spülbecken war defekt und nicht zu gebrauchen, ebenso das Nachttischchen auf der einen Seite des Bettes. Das ursprünglich gebuchte 2-Bett-Zimmer ging geradewegs auf die extrem befahrene Hauptstrasse hinaus, so dass wir das Zimmer zum Glück wechseln konnten.

We would go back but arrange a room at the back of the property.
Pros:

The food was amazing and the staff were lovely and helpful. Great place to stay overall.

Cons:

We were in a front room which was on a main road and so traffic kept us awake.

Friendly staff. Good place to stay.
Pros:

Room was very small but well equipped and well presented.
Breakfast was excellent as were the fish and chips.
Staff were very friendly, cheerful and helpful.

Cons:

A lounge area in the bar. the bar was an overflow of the restaurant so felt awkward taking up a space just for a drink.
Two chairs in the bedroom so that one of us didn't have to sit on bed.
Two cans of water in the room the night we arrived. Had to buy it the second night - £5 a bit steep!.

Lovely staff, great food, good Guiness and highly recommend.
Pros:

I read the reviews before and everyone said the staff were so lovely but couldn’t quite believe it but it was true, everyone was great if only all hotel staff could be like this! Credit to the owners/managers. Can’t recommend enough.

Cons:

The rooms are small but we knew that. The bathroom in room 1 could do with a little tlc, just a lick of paint around the door frame (inside).

Great base to explore the beautiful East Neuk
Pros:

Comfortable with friendly staff, tasty food and very good value for money.

Cons:

Our room faced on to a fairly busy road, which was a little noisy from passing traffic during the night, though the views towards the church and Largo Law were brilliant.

We enjoyed our visit and overall were satisfied, all the staff were helpful.
Pros:

Staff were very friendly and very helpful. Food was good quality and excellent value.

Cons:

The room needs a little TLC particularly the bathroom but it is an old building and that places limitations on any upgrade.
