Guests generally found the apartment comfortable, with a few noting the bed was squeaky or uncomfortable. The warmth and quietness of the apartment were positively mentioned, but comfort was occasionally compromised by maintenance issues.

The apartment is well-furnished and equipped according to guests, but some reported unreliable lift service and a need for additional kitchen equipment. Maintenance issues such as a draughty window and boiler problems have affected the score.

    The review that i sent also via booking is the following: regarding the agency that manages the property they are extremely slow to respond or they dont respond at all (see my last messages regarding the beds) regarding the apartment, cleanings and maintenance to be improved consistantly house rules exessive

  • Stephen

    The apartment was cosy and had everything we needed. There was plenty to do - good walking, interesting Clan Macpherson museum and the wonderful folk museum AND it is all free! This is certainly a property that we would have no hesitation in staying at again.

  • Toni

    Clean and well maintained. It contained everything we needed for our stay. Great location for exploring the Cairngorms National Park. The only thing that would have made our stay even better is an electric fan as it was a particularly hot week and it did get hot up in the roof. However, we were grateful to have such good weather for our holiday! Thanks for a great week!
