Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Location was good and the bar and the meals at the bar was good
Negative: Rooms too small needs a bit of loving care in the maintenance getting to the room could be a issue for people with mobility issues and lacked the little things you would expect for the price like bedside lights wallpaper not peeling away and mould in the shower tray
Summary: Would not use again as too expensive for what it was though the staff was really lovely

Positive: Very friendly and helpful lady who worked at reception in the evening and the following morning in the breakfast room. Good location Parking, although a bit cumbersome to access
Negative: It was generally good. It’s an old building in an area very exposed to the weather so not surprisingly this showed somewhat.
Summary: Good location, value for money, really good tableserved breakfast

Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Perfect location. Very friendly and helpful staff
Negative: Overpriced. Beautiful reception area. Our first room was very clean and well set up but wallpaper starting to lift. But it was up two flights of stairs one very narrow and down a long narrow hall. However the receptionist kindly moved us to a newly renovated room on the street which was great but no outlook and no wifi. All would be exceptable if it wasn’t by far the most expensive room we booked on our trip to Orkney.
Summary: The pricing has not kept up with the aging of the property
