Liked: Cleanliness
This was a charming but rustic property. I expected that, as I read the age of the hotel. Tub/shower was a bit rickety, but clean. The rooms are heated with radiators that are on timers...you cannot control the temp yourself. Food at their restaurant was great. The place just needs a bit of TLC.

Disappointing

This hotel is so hot, even at breakfast. It felt completely over priced. I’d rather have stayed at the Premier Inn for less money.

My wife and I stayed here for one night while we visited the Isle of Colonsay; we wish we could have stayed longer but the limited ferry schedule constrained us. Since this is the only hotel on the island, it doesn't exactly have much competition, but it provides a good experience nonetheless. In addition to a hotel, it's a pub, lounge, and restaurant, and there are tables and chairs set up in the grassy yard. The location is excellent; it's up a slight hill from the ferry terminal, which gives the dining area (and some rooms, presumably) a great view over the bay, and it's within 3 miles of most of the points of interest on the island (e.g. Kiloran Bay, The Strand/Oronsay). Dinner at the restaurant was amazing, and the pub features several varieties of gin made on the island. The rooms can be a little small, but that's understandable given the age of the building, and they have clean, modern bathrooms. The staff were accommodating of our request to store our luggage at the hotel both before and after our stay, and also let us check out slightly late, since we arrived on a morning ferry and departed on an evening one.
