A really great week on an enchanting island
We had the best of experiences possible. Everything was just perfect. All the furniture and fittings are as new and everything worked as it should. Couldn't find a fault. As a guest house you couldn't find better. Fyona is really very helpful with superb breakfasts.

Reactie van Aileen & Albert (Owners) op 26 aug 2020
Hello Anthony, Thank you for your feedback. We are disappointed that you didn't mention this during your 4 night stay, as you were asked if everything was ok for you. We gave you a bigger room at check in also without extra charge. All beds/ matresses are of excellent quality and are pocket sprung for extra comfort. Mattress firmness is very personal and it is impossible to please everyone! We wish we could. Apologies if you experienced some extra noise during your stay, a family of 5 were staying in the room above. Unsure about this being problematic overnight as I would have thought they would have been sleeping. If you had asked we could have easily moved you into our other kingsize room without problem as we are operating at a reduced capacity at present. We are a small family business aiming to offer guests a home away from home with comfortable rooms and a tasty breakfast. I feel your rating of poor does not reflect the brand new modern room with quality finishings and a spacious modern bathroom with walk in power shower etc.

Top B&B in Kirkwall
Albert, der Gastgeber, war sehr nett und hat viele Fragen zu Orkney beantworten können, da er hier geboren ist. Die Zimmer waren super eingerichtet, allerdings sind die Matratzen ziemlich weich. Das Frühstück war super. Albert bereitet die warmen Speisen ganz frisch zu, die man am Abend ausgewählt hat. Die Lage der Unterkunft ist okay. Wir sind immer abends mit dem Auto ins Stadtzentrum von Kirkwall gefahren aber man kann auch 20 Minuten zu Fuß gehen.

Beautiful place with super friendly and helpful hosts. It was the best room we had during a 2 week vacation in Scotland, out of 10 different places. Parking was great, location is a pleasant 3/4 mile walk to town center. Breakfasts were very good and hosts had great recommendations for dining. Perfect!

Lovely house in quiet area. There were plenty of information sheets about things to do and places to see in the vicinity. Also a a cabinet with treats for a snack with an honesty box. Rooms were immaculate and en-suite first class. Food selection was varied and service good. Cooked breakfast was excellent. Staff very pleasant and helpful. Highly recommend.

Thank you for your feedback Mary. We are glad that you found your room clean and that you enjoyed your tasty hearty breakfast! Im sorry that you found your bed uncomfortable, everyone is different and likes different mattresses, ours are less than 2 years old and Medium/Firm. Our rooms are beautifully furnished with solid oak furniture and we pride ourselves in offering a friendly service with a home away from home feel, we regularly turn our mattresses for guest comfort and in our opinion are nice and comfortable. Our rates are set for the summer months and are on par with the rest of Kirkwall however, as you initially cancelled your room and then turned up without letting us know that you wanted to keep your booking which is very unusual, this might be why you have left us this review. You didn't say a goodbye on departure or let us know of any problem at the time sadly. It is just a shame that you decided to leave us a very harsh review score online which is very unnecessary. We are a small family run business that we have been working very hard to build up the last 7 years. A hotel might offer more of what you wanted next time, a room above a noisy bar with single glazed dirty windows which you would undoubtedly pay a lot more for!

Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately we can't assume all our guests have bad backs, and as such can't provide mattresses specifically for that! All our mattresses are medium/firm and all less than 5 years only, with the exception of the family room which were just replaced in December 2018.

Tranquillo e molto accogliente
Abbiamo pernottato per 3 notti in doppia con colazione compresa. La posizione è molto tranquilla, non centrale ma in 15 minuti a piedi si arriva nel centro di Kirkwall (l'autobus 4 che collega Kirkwall con l'aeroporto passa comunque a 100 m dalla guest house). Camera grande, pulitissima, molto confortevole; bagno molto grande, anche questo pulitissimo. Colazione preparata al momento (si riempie il modulo la sera prima) eccellente ed abbondante, con ampia scelta. Mi sono trovata benissimo e posso solo consigliarlo. Fra l'altro ho avuto un problema con la valigia ed il proprietario è stato molto disponibile per aggiustarla, ha superato altri 2 voli senza problemi.
