Room was very clean and comfortable. Nicely decorated and extra large bed was excellent. Highland Soap Company shampoo, conditioner and shower gel was a great touch. Helpful staff & nice food in restaurant. Parking was full when we arrived but was able to park on main street overnight and move car in morning. Breakfast menu was great but food was not hot when served - only small point. Would definitely stay here again.
