The Lodge on the Loch by OYO

The Lodge on the Loch by OYO

8/10 Good
"Nice comfortable and clean overnight stay. If you have any need for internet don't come here. Otherwise we had a large comfortable room with a large bath. The bed was super firm and old but we were very tired. The burger food truck just next door is awesome. As mentioned the internet is super slow whether in the lobby or room. There is no lift so be prepared to carry bags up. Also safety note: if you plan to be driving to/from Glasgow at night (or even in daylight) be super careful. Many deer just along the roadway and we saw at least 4 dead road kill driving in the early morning to Glasgow."
