charmed stay!

cozy environment cute hotel kind owner
I loved the location and the entire hotel. it felt cozy and cute. It was also very quiet, exactly what i needed. the style is self check-in and self check out, perfect for people who don't like interactions. i did meet the owner when i left. She was SO kind!!!
the breakfast felt a little basic and like there wasn't much care. for the price, i think a few simple touches would make a big difference. fresh fruit or bread and real porridge instead of instant porridge would go a long way.
Rooms

the bonnie prince charlie room was both charming and spacious. it had a very comfortable bed. continental breakfast was left in the room.
Service

A Few Minor Issues

scottish style bathtub visitor advice driveway potholes personal contact fresh roll
I occupied the King Suite. The suite had decor in a Scottish style. The bathroom included a bathtub. The hosts gave good advice regarding local attractions.
The driveway had potholes. I found the lack of personal contact disconcerting. There was no fresh coffee or rolls.
