It's an OK place to put your head down. The management have obviously not spent anything more than necessary.!
Pros:

Staff very nice, cleanliness 6/10.

Cons:

The mattress was very average. It needs to be replaced.
The pillows were rubbish, like chip packets.

My bottom sheet did not looked like it had been washed properly OR at all. That's really tacky.

Dornoch is a lovely town and this allows you to stay there and enjoy what it has to offer.
Pros:

The location in Dornoch is good and easy access to restaurants and the beach.

Cons:

This is a hotel and bar, Scotland were playing in the world cup the night we stayed and the game started at 2am in the morning and there was a late bar on, as Scotland won you can imagine the noise. I understand this is a locals pub too but having raucous late nights with populated hotel rooms above are mutually exclusive, so on these occasions do one or the other.

A good place to stay
Pros:

Situated in a delightful wee town it’s hard to fault anything about our stay. The pub was good, the food was good, the atmosphere was good and the staff were good.

Unwelcoming and disappointing. IMO best avoided.
Pros:

Not much.

Cons:

Avoid this place.
On a 14‑day Land’s End to John O’Groats trip, this was our worst stay. Despite the high prices, we could have accepted the tired accommodation, but the poor customer service made us feel like our being there was a problem.
There was no help with storing our two expensive bikes, the dining table was sticky and we were told last orders were 22:30, yet refused a drink at 22:20 as the till had already been cashed up.
We even overheard a derogatory comment from staff as we left.
