Cosy, modern ground floor flat in central Kirkwall

9.2 out of 10, Wonderful, (22)
"The apartment is clean and in a great location, close to restaurants, pubs, waterfront, shops, etc. The bed was fairly comfy and it had everything we needed. The only thing that would have made it better is a blow dryer and the shower temp being easier to adjust. We would recommend staying here."
