10/10 Exceptional

Nice place to stay
Luis, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall this is a good place, in a quiet location. Rooms are quite basic but fine. The shared kitchen is really nice. The only problems are very thin walls (you can hear any noises e.g talking and phones pinging in the next room) and a bright green light over the room door which you can't switch off. But overall a good stay and I slept well.

Great value

Great place just outside the town centre, clean, well equipped, stayed with friends on a motorcycle tour and lots of onsite parking. Would recommend.

The hostel is very clean. It’s in a quiet area. Everything what needed. Recommended.
Robert, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good and affordable place to stay in a quiet neighborhood at Inverness. It took us a good minute to figure out which room was ours since it's a self-check-in process and the keys to each room were on the doors. Overall great stay.

6/10 Good

Self check in was smooth
Gwendolyn, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is an hostel and has basic stuff. The common kitchen was useful.
Harinath, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely property safe homely feeling. Great facilities. Super clean. A nice surprise, not your usual hostel more like a bnb/mini hotel. Use of kitchen. Amazing shower. Heaters on when needed. Would recommend
Sarah, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall pleasant experience. Wish there was more signage and the phone number was inaccurate. Still, we were able to check in to our clean hostel without a worker and had a pleasant experience. The bathroom was especially nice.

2/10 Poor

Other than the shower, the place was dirty. Kitchen and floors need a deep clean
Alex, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We were very jet lagged so it was a convenient place to crash for the night. But our room smelled of stale cigaret smoke, we had to sleep with the window open. And the mattresses had buttons in them that made them extra uncomfortable. But the place was clean. And we felt safe.
Sarah, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The bathroom flooring is coming out..There was a weird stink from the toilet..we had to open the window wide open..which is not ideal..coz the room was on the ground floor..No heating..Cobwebs on ceilings..room & bathroom..no hooks or hangers in the room..
Manish, 1-night trip

DO NOT STAY HERE

DO NOT STAY HERE. No hot water, and I mean NONE, not like the pictures at all, very dirty, smells. Horrible experience. After 1st night of a 3 night stay we left and stayed elsewhere.
Megan, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Not a very good location, poor repair, and overall quite dirty. Seems like a place the owners are just trying to milk for what they can without putting any effort or work back into the place. The freezer in the kitchen was so iced over the door wouldn’t shut.
Joshua, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

There was no wifi signal available in the property which was basic amenity to be provided as terms of booking. Upon enquiry the owner showed suprise but did nothing to rectify the issue.
Joao, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The communication was very poor. They did not respond to questions. The back of the facility has all kinds of rubbish spread about.
Katherine, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Cool Place!

This was a really cool place to stay. Our group stayed in the 5 person room which had 5 single beds around the walls. We called it the "Seven Dwarves Room." The room was huge, with its own bathroom and we were very pleased with it. The beds weren't the most comfy in the world but we managed. The kitchen was clean and well stocked and the other guests were respectful and kind. We stayed in several hostels on our trip and this one was one of our favorites! There was confusion during check in as the number provided to contact someone for help wasn't working or no one was answering. Not the best way to manage the property. But keep access to your email as this property uses that as its primary form of checking you in.

Beware

GOOD: Price; Location is in a leafy quiet road ; comfortable bed;Parking BAD:The non smoking room had a stench of smoke. View from window was a yard full of junk. Noisy building so heard every other occupants movements. COMMUNICATION:Received self check in details a day after we had checked out! Fortunately we were able to speak to the contact by phone who told us our room number. If you're looking for a cheap place to stay it's acceptable only if you don't care about high standard of accomodation and have earplugs ( which we did)
