“I see a family-run hotel positioned for explorations of Loch Lomond and the Trossachs. While some rooms could benefit from updating, the location on the main route to the loch is definitely convenient. The on-site bar and lounge, complete with a pool table, strike me as a decent place to unwind after a day outdoors.”

vegetarian option good space

The breakfast offered a delicious variety of choices. I was pleased with the vegetarian and vegan options available. I noted a super clean room with plenty of space and good water pressure in the shower.

The hotel is located directly on the highway. It can get quite loud.

a distinctly average experience

damp socks smell road noise

the staff were friendly enough, i guess.

The room smelled vaguely of damp socks, not the most cute scent. the tv remote seemed to have a mind of its own, changing channels at random. also, the noise from the nearby road made it difficult to sleep. Seemed like i was camping on the motorway.
