Struttura datata, materassi scomodi, buona colazione
Pros:

Staff gentile e ottima colazione.

Cons:

Materasso e cuscini scomodissimi! Struttura datata, stanza piccola e soprattutto avevamo prenotato la cena per la sera del nostro arrivo, confermata via mail dalla manager: la sera del nostro arrivo abbiamo scoperto, chiamando l'hotel per avvertire di mezzora di ritardo nell'arrivo, ci hanno detto che per un non precisato problema il ristorante era chiuso. Ovviamente in tutto il paese non c'era un posto per cenare (alle 20,30!) perché troppo tardi.

Schönes, kleines Hotel mitten in Dufftown
Pros:

Großes, sauberes Zimmer, komfortables Bett, ruhige Lage, freundliches Personal, das Frühstück war sehr gut, es gab alles was das Herz begehrt.
Großes Bad mit Badewanne und sehr guter Beleuchtung!

Cons:

Leider hatte das Restaurant geschlossen, aber gleich um die Ecke ist das Restaurant "The Stillman" zu empfehlen.
