Satisfactory Visit

good size room nice sized shower friendly service uneven floorboards limited choice local produce
I found the room to be a good size and clean. The bathroom included a nice sized shower. The location is outside of the city, but a convenient drive to explore the Scottish Highlands and Loch Ness. I also enjoyed the restaurant's friendly service.
The room felt basic, though it was quite big. The floorboards were uneven and creaky. This. Breakfast had limited choices. I would have liked to have seen local produce on the menu.
