a sweet stay close to everything

prime locationhelpful staffscenic glencoetiny room
the location it was so close, like a whisper, to the high street. i could almost feel the shops beckon me. the staff, they helped me find some hidden gems, like scenic glencoe and glenfinnan, where bonnie prince charlie once graced the shore.
my heart was a little saddened by the smallness of the room, like a secret tucked away. there was no chair, so i sat on the bed, dreaming of a little more space to stretch my limbs.

Convenient Stay in Central Location

helpful staffon-site parkingclean roomsmall room
The staff were very helpful . The hotel offered on-site parking (a definite plus). My room was super clean and cozy. I really appreciated the cafe downstairs. It served tasty food after a long day.
The room was quite small, and there was no dedicated space for luggage. I had to keep my suitcase on the floor . This made moving around the room a little difficult.
