A Cozy Stay with Great Breakfast and Views

great locationfull breakfastloud fan
The location was excellent, just a short walk to the town center (about five minutes, I'd say). Breakfast had lots of choices and I especially enjoyed the full breakfast. The staff were very nice all the time.
The bathroom fan made a terrible racket when turned on. It was quite loud, but thankfully I didn't need to use it for long.

The breakfast included many options. I noted they served it in a room with a view over the loch. The service was nice. They promptly provided everything necessary for a great start to my days.

The room was smaller than i expected. Moving around with luggage proved difficult. the bathroom was disappointing. It was hard to get the right water temperature in the shower. the breakfast service felt impersonal since no one asked about preferences, leading to waste.
