No10 Stornoway Town Centre

The location was superb by the quayside in Stornoway.

Proximity to town plus very bright and warm

Blackout blinds on the bedroom would be good for in summer months.

The location was great. The apartment was very clean, spacious, very comfortable and the kitchen was well set up with some groceries for us. Our host responded promptly and was helpful when I needed help logging onto the WiFi ... which was great!

I didn't know about the stairs for access, however it was only challenging on arrival and departure with luggage which may be a reflection on our age. The rest of the time it was fine.

Wonderful location with views of the harbour and easy to find when coming off the ferry by car. Very comfortable bed with lovely bedding. Excellent facilities for preparing food, if you want to stay in. Walking distance to very good bars and restaurants. Excellent parking.

For us, with a car, this was a perfect base. The apartment was immaculately clean and tidy and we were very grateful for the lightly stocked kitchen - enough bits and pieces to pull a light meal together if caught out timewise - everything was thought through with the guest in mind. Lots of room, local amenities were good and we were never short of parking in the courtyard. All in all very good.

The only thing was the duvet - could really have done with a thicker, cosier one, the evenings were getting a bit colder (we chose not to put the heating on as invariably we were out until a point it time when it just wasn't worth it). Maybe we were just a bit early for the transition to winter duvets and this is a really minor personal preference (we did find the blanket to act as an extra layer). This apartment is up 3 flights of steps so is not suitable for those who struggle with steps.
