Dreadful. We left this horrible place to find somewhere else to stay.
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Dirty carpets, old furniture, room smelt horribly of cooking oil (directly above kitchen). We did not stay. Worst hotel in a long time. Extremely poor value for money. Would recommend avoiding altogether.

Pros:

Ein sehr nettes Hotel mit schönen Zimmern. Die
Betten sind sehr bequem und das Bad scheint neu gemacht worden zu sein, die Handtücher ein träumchen 😊
Aus dem Fenster hat man eine atemberaubenden Aussicht.

Wunderschön

Do not stay here
Cons:

I didn’t get to stay because the mold levels here gave me an asthma attack after being in the lobby only a few minutes. I haven’t had an asthma attack in 15 years. Do NOT stay here, the level of mold here is not only unhygienic but could make many people very ill. Please tear this place down and rebuild.

Muy bien y buena ubicación
Pros:

Muy bonito en un entorno sin igual. La zona de las habitaciones preciosa con cabañas. Todo limpio y la ubicación perfecta especialmente para ir a zonas de trekking. El desayuno bien. La habitación triple perfecta para un matrimonio y un niño (tres camas individuales)

Cons:

Igual mucha gente por todos los sitios que cuando vas a una zona natural no te esperas pero entiendo q eso no es cuestión del alojamiento en si sino mas de la zona

Excellent stay!
Pros:

Excellent stay at the Clachaig Inn! The drive there in itself is incredible with a wonderful ending at the inn. Rooms were comfortable and just what we needed. We hiked around the Inn and saw wild ponies. The breakfast was delicious, and it was a pleasant surprise to have live music on Saturday night at the pub. Highly recommend. And shout out to Gorgia, who recommended all the best places around for our exploring.

Das Service Personal ist echt freundlich das Essen hervorragend und die Lage ein Traum
Pros:

Die Lage ist unbeschreiblich schön! Achtung es ist sehr viel los. Nichts für Menschen die Ruhe suchen

Cons:

Es ist schon sauber, aber die Ecken und Heizung ist echt schmutzig. Das warme Wasser ging leider nicht. Auf keinen Fall eher anreisen, wurde sehr bissig empfangen
