Hommikusöök oli maitsev, toad puhtad ja hubased. Kesklinn15 minutilise jalutuskäigu kaugusel. Ümbruskonnas on söögikohad, poed ja pubid.

Dušširuumis ei tahtnud vesi korralikult alla minna. Natuke häiris ka see, et maja ees olevate põõsaste tagant paistis prügi.

"Ich hatte es mir besser vorgestellt."

7.0

Die Lage, das Frühstück, das Personal war sehr nett! Fehlende Handtücher wurden direkt auf Nachfrage zur Verfügung gestellt. Nette und schnelle Kommunikation.

Türen und Schlösser der Zimmer sehr alt und abgenutzt. Matratzen waren absolut durchgelegen. Kühlschrank machte keinen hygienischen Eindruck. Sehr viel Staub auf den Deckenlampen - grundsätzlich sind die Zimmer renovierungsbedürftig. Kein Platz für einen geöffneten Koffer vorhanden. Eine Ablagemöglichkeit in der Dusche wäre super gewesen.

"Cruachan Guesthouse was a disappoinment."

4.0

Breakfast was okay and the staff was friendly. Location was okay.

Evaluation: Cruachan Guesthouse was a big dissappointment for us. We had informed the manager over a week earlier that we would be arriving late, around 23.00/24.00 o’clock. We also asked about breakfast serving time. We received information that the keys would be in the ”blue box” by the door and the late arrival would not be any problem. Not a word about breafast. When we arrived to the guesthouse, we found out we should have a code to open the box. We never received one! We had no other option but to call the manager. He was impolite, rude, irritated and snappy about us waking him up in the middle of the night. The rooms were dirty! There was rubbish under beds, spider webs and dust on the walls and seemingly some kind water damage by the ceiling. We had two rooms: one downstairs and one upstairs. The shower in upstairs room didn’t work properly so they had to come to shower to downstairs room! The cutlery and the tableware were dirty! The only positive thing was the staff! The lady and the mister who worked in the breakfast room were friendly and helpful. We do not recommend this guesthouse for anyone. Even with the low price this place was below standard.

"Great staff. Yummy breakfast. Close to everything. Would stay again."

10.0

Location was perfect. Was able to walk to everything. Building has a homey feel as well. Beautiful building.

Parking was a little bit of a hassle. We were sent in the roght direction though, but had to pay. Is what it is, still worth the stay.
