I enjoyed the comfortable breakfast and the friendly staff who made my stay pleasant. the room's decor was dated and the shower pressure was inconsistent, which impacted my overall experience. This place is suitable for a quick visit, especially for those who appreciate a warm breakfast.

It was just a great match for a brief stopover in Lerwick with attractive and competitive value for money. The breakfast choice was wide even though some items were disappointing. Try to request fresh coffee instead of cold options.

Welcoming Staff and Delicious Breakfast

I had a great stay, enjoying the cozy atmosphere and the staff's exceptional engagement. The breakfast was particularly delightful, with a wide array of options that included local specialties like smoked haddock. The location is just a short walk to the town center, which made exploring easy. the heating in my room could use some improvement as it struggled to keep the space warm enough during the colder nights.

Clean single room, pleasant breakfast. the property was very clean in both the room and public areas, and the breakfast lady worked hard fetching everyone’s individual orders while being very pleasant with the guests.

Can’t fault anything about it.
