Pleasant people and lovely facility.
Pros: The room was so clean and very nice. It was up a flight of stairs, They gave a wonderful breakfast each day.
Cons: The bed was hard, and we couldn't open the window. I think it was painted over. Dangerous since its up on the second or third level.

Reasonable Accommodation Choice in Kirkwall
Pros: A unprepossessing property, nevertheless the West End Guest house has a warm heart. It's a bit shabby, but it's clean, and once the room got heated up, it was warm. Great shower. It would have been nice to be on the second floor, with a better view. Still, it was quiet at night. It's also only a block or two from town. Really nice that it has parking.
The breakfast and breakfast staff were lovely. It's a little odd to get to the place and find your room key in a lockbox - there is no staff on hand - but it worked fine.
This is not a luxury accommodation but it was adequate, comfortable, and served our needs well.

Pros: The actual accommodation was good, comfortable and met our expectations. The breakfast was good. At the time we arrived it was dark and quite challenging to find the guest house and the parking It took a bit of exploration to find the keys. I had the key code and that all went well.
Cons: The tap on the wash hand basin was leaking

Great location, perfect room and...
Pros: The welcome and attention to detail when arriving tired and late (23.30) from the Kirkwall ferry was exceptional. Andrew was extremely helpful and took away any stress that one might feel on a 'first night' after a long journey. The overnight stay set the scene for four excellent nights on Orkney Mainland. Andrew (the proprietor/host) was also a source of great ideas and route-planning for a first day traveling by bicycle. Highly recommended.
