9.4/10 Exceptional! (763 reviews)
Overall stay was okay. The room walls are too thin you can hear EVERYTHING from the rooms next door. Numerous nights we were unable to sleep because of the noise! Also we hated that the room where right opposite a multistorey carpark, so we had to keep the curtain closed at all times unless we were not in the room. We felt the room was quite dark, even when the dimmer was on the brightest setting, we felt the room was still dark. There was no fridge / freezer in the room which we prefer in hotel rooms.

No amenities, small rooms and bathroom. Property needs maintenance and renovations. Not worth $450 CAD a night. Should be $200 a night maximum but I do understand that demand for accommodations on Isle of Skye are very much in demand. Also, far from Portree and other locations worth visiting.
