Had two night stay and slept really well, so no complaints about the beds. Staff friendly. Decor generally very poor (carpets and walls in particular need attention) and no need for radiators to be on during the summer - some of the corridors were uncomfortably hot. Carpets smelly.

Hotel 3/5 stars Restaurant 4/5 stars The staff were great and the location was good for access to Troissachs and Loch Lomond areas. I was just disappointed in the upkeep on the hotel portion. I walked into my room and it was very musty (smelled like it hadn't been aired out in a long time) and even leaving the window open didn't help. The bathrooms was serviceable but very outdated. The hotel really feels like it needs some upkeep and a little remodel. I don't think I would choose to stay here again given the condition of the room but it was a place to sleep.
