Great value. Room was a bit small but very clean and new feeling. Shower is great. The rooms are above the bar/restaurant, and it was actually very quiet in the room. Overall, a really good place to stay especially if it's single occupancy. The bar and restaurant are both great also, so this is a big plus,

10/10 We only spent one night here, but definitely will come back. The staff was very kind and helpful. The room was very clean and comfortable. The bed was really good and you don’t have to drive to somewhere else for lunch or diner. They serve very delicious food at the restaurant. A bus stop to the city centre is close by and also a bus stop for the Airlink- buses from and to the airport is just 5 minutes to walk. We definitely recommend “the torfin”.

The room was lovely, clean and had everything we needed. The staff were friendly and helpful and the bar was nice and busy. It was a gorgeous day so we sat outside with our cocktails. My only negative comment would be the need for a blackout blind. The room didn't get totally dark other than that, I would highly recommend.
