Room was spotless, Nick communicated very clearly, hassle free in and out. Room had hairdryer, kettle etc. Clean towels, bed was very comfortable. Ensuite was fine, great water pressure in the shower. Very reasonably priced and parking on the street, would definitely stay again.
Loved it. Only the one night but really happy with check in and communication. Very very clean room and shower room .
Never had a shower but looked like the shower head holder was broken? Maybe not?
Really comfy bed. If back in Irvine I will book again.
Very good, simple instructions to gain access, quiet and cosy room. Very powerful shower, comfy bed and good size TV. Wifi was good and strong, simple desk and shelving perfect for a few nights. Great location 5 mins from shops and train station. Plenty of food options near by and bar too. Perfect for the maritime museum.
Small but comfortable guest house on the harbor. Few amenities and only a few restaurants in walking distance, but within easy reach of Troon by car. An affordable option if you are travelling in the region by car.
Such a lovely hotel right on the harbour near loads of good pubs and restaurants - as well as the beach. Had a charming week while away working in Glasgow.
The rooms and property are very clean. A fridge would be nice for longer stays. However, the view and walking area are gorgeous. Would stay here again.
Excellent room facilities: I have a fractured collarbone & everything was very conveniently placed. Although small, the room was easy to move around.
Duvet & room too hot... but Climate is out of our control.
