We had an early ferry to Islay the next morning, and the staff were so thoughtful to prepare our breakfast ahead of time and leave it at the front desk. Great service and nice, comfortable room. The hotel is also very close to the ferry terminal — only about a 10-minute drive, which was very convenient.

Too small. Since it was for one night, it was okay. The Harbour was beautiful. Town very small and we were unable to find anyone that could accommodate us for dinner.

While we were very happy with the accommodations, the clear high points of our short stay were the "above and beyond" helpfulness of the staff and the excellent restaurant and breakfast offerings (on our 1st evening in Scotland we were pleased to enjoy wonderful fish dishes &, of course, Haggis!!!).
