Lovely staff but hotel needs a bit of work.
Pros:

Staff and restaurant were absolutely fantastic and the views over Loch Fyne incredible.

Cons:

30 rooms but only enough space for 10-12 cars. Given location, it would be impossible to travel any way other than car. Stairs inside property very uneven. Also lots of trip hazards, smashed or broken panes of glass and hotel in places seemed very tired.

Beautiful old building in need of TLC. A poor nights sleep due to the rattling window and uncomfortable bed. Overall not
Pros:

Convenient and available last minute when our ferry was cancelled so we were grateful for the safe haven. Good meal in the restaurant. Friendly atmosphere..

Cons:

The building is quite run down and in need of repairs and redecoration. Our rooms were next to a fire escape that doesn’t close. One room was very cold. The TV didn’t work. The beds had very old, worn mattresses with no padding on top of the springs. Our window rattled all night and the curtains were coming off the tracks. The toilet seat was falling off and the shower was coming away from its hose so didn’t work properly.

Ok value for money but tired.its a long walk up to the third floor with heavy bags.
Pros:

It's a good location.

Cons:

This is really tired now. Worst light in a restaurant I've seen in a while. Could so easily be more inviting by turning the lights down a bit. Hot tub ? No thanks
