Very pleasant stay ,the owner more than helpful.
Pros:

Great location for Helensburgh and beyond , we think the property offers great value for money, which is quite rare in a world of increasing prices.

Cons:

Nothing about our stay ( we didn’t like) for us being able to have a beer would have been nice.

Pros:

Room and bathroom were clean and bed was very comfortable ,added bonus was fridge in room.

Cons:

Stairway smelled fusty. Staff were mostly not around and everything just seemed more complicated than it should have been. No communication with staff you just were left to your own devices. I had more conversation and customer service from the man in the Keystore next door.

Pros:

Sehr freundliches Personal, leckeres Frühstück, modernes Bad

Cons:

Viel zu weiche Betten. Verkehrslärm. Das Zimmer war so klein, dass man kaum den Koffer hinlegen konnte. Aber für eine Nacht war es okay.

Nice hotel but a little out of the town centre (which is no problem if you have a car or bike)
Pros:

I liked the fact it was a vegetarian hotel and the room was quite spacious and comfortable. I arrived late and the key was left at reception for me. Breakfast options were good.

Prima hotel voor 1 of meerdere nachten.
Pros:

De ligging en prijs-kwaliteit verhouding waren voor mij het belangrijkste om hier te boeken. En het hotel voldeed prima hieraan. Het personeel was aardig zoals je kunt verwachten.
De kamer was goed en het bed ook. Parkeren kan rondom het hotel op eigen terrein. En het was er veilig genoeg om mijn motor te parkeren.

Cons:

Het is niet een hotel in een hoge prijscategorie en dat zie je een beetje. Bijvoorbeeld, wanneer je de algemene trap oploopt, dan is de vloerbedekking visueel nog wel goed, maar er hing een vreemd luchtje. In de kamer had je daar verder geen last van, die was gewoon schoon en goed.
Het ontbijt is anders dan je gewend bent in de UK en Schotland. Dit vond ik iets minder geslaagd.
