Fantastic Stay with Harbour Sunrise Views

harbour sunrisegreat water pressurepeaceful staystreet noise
I not sketchy at all . I had a Double Sea View for one night and its harbour sunrise photography was lovely. Water pressure in the shower was great! The stay was very peaceful overall.
The room was beside the front door and street so it was loud. I think a sign requesting guests to respect quiet hours would help.

small roomcramped bathroom
I booked a sea view double room. it turned out smaller than i expected. there was no space for a dresser. This made it difficult to manage my belongings. the bathroom also felt quite cramped, not at all relaxing after a long day. the hotel needs more space, cramped bathroom

a proper harbour view!

comfy bedgood sizesuper clean roomgreat location
room 10 was great. it was a good size, and the bed, it was comfy. everything i need for a few days, i found it. the room was super clean, and they kept it up good. checking in, checking out, easy peasy. it's near everything, just a bit walk to the shops. i'd for sure stay again.
room was good, but i did notice the chemical fragrance was rather strong. it kinda gave me the queasies, you know? came to skye for the air, so that was a shame.

parking is across from the hotel, so it is very convenient. this is a definite plus as many accommodations lack immediate parking, i see. the location is also quiet.

The bathroom was quite small. i found it difficult to move around comfortably. also, the soundproofing was inadequate. i could hear noise from the street and other guests. This disturbed my sleep. the room was on the ground floor facing a busy road. this resulted in a less than ideal experience.
