Sympathisch

Das Personal an der Bar war sehr nett. Um zu den Zimmern zu kommen gibt es einen separaten Eingang. Das Zimmer war sauber und nicht 08:15. Es hat mir sehr gefallen.

The room was clean and sufficient for us to basically just sleep there. The noise coming through the vent fan in the bathroom was loud. We got hot at night so had to open the windows…it was noisy. But we managed and overall would stay again.

2 nights after walking Great Glen Way

Came in after completing the last stage of the Great Glen Way. Check in was easy at the bar. Room was upstairs. Side door to access rooms without going through the bar area (or when closed). A little loud as the beer garden was audible, but I was warned of that in advance and it wasn't loud enough to disturb me. Room was small, but big enough for me and my pack. Had a stool to sit on, and I would have liked a chair with a back. Because of bar opening hours, was no place to leave my bag at checkout to further explore before leaving town, but that was OK. Well situated in the old town, pubs and restaurants abound.

No frills but convenient.

This is a great choice if you just need a place to sleep because you're going to be gone all day doing tourist stuff. Good location, good value, nice amount of space in the room. There was no t.v. (which is fine, just unusual) and the bed wasn't especially luxurious. One of the light fixtures worked only occasionally. I would stay there again with no hesitation if I was on a budget. We were worried it would be loud, being above a bar, and while we could hear people downstairs, it was never so obtrusive that we couldn't sleep, just a quiet murmur.

Check in was quick and easy. Room was clean. Bed was very uncomfortable and could feel every spring. Shower had mold and room had a musty odor near toilet. Could hear every noise from the hallway and staircase. Expected to hear the bar below but was surprised i could also hear the bars across the way. Its a convenient location but wouldn't stay here again.
