The worst hotel we have ever stayed in.
Pros:

The view.
The peas.

Cons:

Our room and bathroom were tiny and tucked away in a poky corner at the end of a long corridor. The bathroom was so small you could not shut the door if you were sitting on the loo. Rather like ladies public toilets.
The food was poor. A burnt burger, re-heated tough, dried fish and uncooked chips. No ice cream as stated on menu.
Empty tins at breakfast - no bacon, hash browns, tomatoes and other empty tins therefore no choices and nobody replenishing. A few sausages were sitting in a pool of grease which nobody was taking.
No provision was made for eating in the bar, (we had our small dog with us) we felt as if we were nuisances.
When I said (very politely) we wanted to pay and leave without staying our second night the receptionist just reiterated what was written in the hotel blurb and gave no apology that it wasn't up to our expectations. We did not want to argue and didn't, despite the receptionist being quite defensive.

Below average room, good food and good customer service.
Pros:

Location, food, staff were lovely.

Cons:

Having stayed here before and what we paid for it, the room was in very poor repair, tiny, bathroom outdated with mould around shower tray and bathroom door broken. Very noisy too. Very overpriced for the room we had.

been there, done it, wont stop again
Pros:

Location handy for breaking up a long road trip, views of the hills from both windows.

Bar staff helpful and friendly

top floor was nice and quiet - didnt hear the band playing down in the bar.

Cons:

Receptionist was a bit "short" when booking in. Possibly to do with others asking her when their rooms would be ready (apparently long delays on the downstairs rooms)

Both single beds in the twin room were way too soft - felt like you were being sucked into the bed instead of laying on it.

Bathroom - showing signs of age. staining / mildew / mold in places to the tile grout

bar menu the same as the restaurant menu - so restricted to either a 2 course (£23.00+) or 3 course meal (£25.00+)
only 5 choices for main meal - two of which were fish.
very disappointed on that side as was looking forward to something more traditional like gammon or hunters chicken.

Didnt bother with the breakfast option at £15.00 (most other places i stop in its either included or an extra £9.99) so had a porridge pot in my room that i took in.

A good place for a stay over en route to The Highlands, with a hearty Scottish breakfast
Pros:

Our overall experience was good. Staff were exceptional and the breakfast, excellent. As with the public areas of the hotel, our room, though comfortable, was somewhat tied and the bathroom, dated and cold.

Urocza okolica nad jeziorem. Nic lepszego w tej cenie nie znajdziesz.
Pros:

Ok stosunek jakości do ceny. Hotel nieco przestarzały, ale za to niedrogi jak na Szkocję. Urocza okolica nad jeziorem, stary kościół z cmentarzem niedaleko. Przyjemne lobby, gdzie można posiedzieć. Duży, darmowy parking. Wifi działa dobrze. Jest winda. Na jedną noc spoko.

Cons:

Trochę zaniedbane pokoje, ale bez tragedii. W łazience nie działała spłuczka.
