"Hyvä tukikohta Invernessissä"

8.0

Sijainti oli loistava Näkymä aamupalalla suoraan Invernesin linnaa kohti Höyrysauna pitkien vaelluspäivien jälkeen oli ihanan rentouttava Ruoka alacarte listalta yllätti myös positiivisesti

Ikä alkaa näkyä hotellissa Lattia narisee kävellessä Vessan koko kookkaammalle ihmiselle aika napakka Suihku oli ehkä reissuni vinkein Kesti tovi tajuta miten sitä käytetään Minua nämä eivät häirinneet, mutta huomio muille tulijoille

"Disappointing"

5.0

The location was great, the staff were lovely.

The room itself felt more like an average roadside motel than a hotel stay. Both the room and the wider facilities were noticeably dated, giving the whole property a tired, slightly claustrophobic atmosphere. The furnishings, carpets, and general décor all seemed well past their prime, and it was hard to ignore how worn everything felt.The bed and pillows were particularly uncomfortable, firm to the point of feeling hard, and clearly due for replacement. While the space was clean, the overall experience didn’t match the standard or comfort level I expected or paid for.
