A bit of a let down given the potential
Pros:

Beautifully located and fantastic views

Cons:

Borderline cleanliness, tired and in dire need of a refresh. The soundproofing is sub par so not recommended for light sleepers. This is a place that has so much potential but is clearly struggling.

Voor het betaalde geld hadden we meer verwacht.
Pros:

Er was jammer genoeg geen ontbijt. Hotel is nog in renovatie, denken we.
Hadden een prima eettent een paar deuren verder gevonden. Dat is ook het grootste pluspunt. Het hotel ligt in het centrum met ernaast 1 van de 3 stranden die Shetland rijk is.
Nieuwe vloerbedekking en nieuwe stoelbekleding maken dat het er netjes uitziet.ook de verwarmingselementen zijn nieuw. Eigenlijk is alles wel aanwezig.

Cons:

Heel jammer dat voor zoveel geld, er niet meer is. Geen ontbijt in het hotel. Restaurant wordt opgeknapt, verf bladert aan de buitenkant van de ramen. Bedden zijn slecht opgemaakt.
Op het strandje wordt smorgens vroeg gezwommen. Dat kun je goed horen.
Het is het allemaal net niet. En dat voor 250 euro per nacht!

Väga tore hotell
Pros:

Asukoht väga hea. Meile tuldi spetsiaalselt vastu ja lasti varem tuppa, kõik olid väga sõbralikud. Väga rahule jäime. Hommikusööki saab kohe kõrvalt Pete kohvikust.

A perfect end to my vacation
Pros:

View from the room of Lerwick harbour was incredible, so close that you could see to the bottom of the sea. Decoration some would call dated, but I loved the gilt carving and the room was quirky and unique. Staff incredibly polite and helpful. Left with a great impression.

Cons:

Bed was a bit hard but I've slept in a lot worse
