The hotel offered clean and comfortable rooms, but lacked basic food amenities like mini-packets of biscuits. The service was attentive and flexible, enhancing the relaxing break. The location was central for touring Shetland with easy access to Lerwick, but lacked public transport. The dining experience was good overall, but could improve by offering more varied breakfast options.
