James, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great position.

We had a nice room. It was on the third floor so a bit of a challenge for people who don't like stairs. The breakfast was continental and had everything you need. The hotel is ideally located to central Lerwick. Some on sight parking but plenty free parking nearby.

The b&b was quaint, clean, and walkable. Check-in was very inconvenient. Also- parking is consistent.

First I would like to say Hotels. Com should not have this place on their website! There were NO staff, we were met by a very nice chap who was a friend of the owner ( his words) the owner was not in Shetland. I think we were the only people staying there, the central heating was not on or not working, we had a small electric heater in the room. The electric towel rail in the bathroom did not work. The bed was very uncomfortable, I could feel the bed springs in the mattress. Breakfast was help yourself, we did get it all explained to us by the chap we met for 15 mins on the 1st day. We did not see or hear anyone during our stay.

Great view

Stayed one night. Great room. Nigel putting binoculars in the room so you can make the most of the views as the place is situated high up and you can see down to the harbour is a great touch. Self serve breakfast, lots of choice including a couple of home baked items.

The room was TINY. The bathroom was even smaller. Our room needed a good clean. Maybe a scrub or even paint. The breakfast was very good. All we needed and then the baking was a great extra.
