Loch View Gem

The young woman managing the hotel was very helpful. She assisted with my heavy bag upon arrival. The accommodation was clean and furnished beautifully. My room included a wonderful view of the loch. Local restaurants were within walking distance.
I noticed a strange smell in the hotel and my room. The bathroom space was also quite small. I hope they address these minor issues .
