This property was poorly maintained, overprices, room dirty, matresses brutaly uncomfortable; I've stayed in $10 a night nostels that offered far better sleeping conditions than this. I'm surprised Expedia would even list this property on its website.

No towels provided on site and we were not aware of this until checkin. We were given a self check in code that was incorrect and were unable to get into our room. We booked the four person quadruple suite and when we checked in there were only three beds and a sofa with no extra linens or pillows. We called to discuss this issue and were told that we had booked a 3 person room despite my confirmation for the quadruple room. We were forced to pay an additional £20 for a bigger room.

Worse place I’ve ever ever stayed !!!

The worse and dirtiest place I’ve ever stayed, had to stay here as my hotel dropped though and I had my dog with me I’ve stayed in hostels when I was younger back packing but this place was disgusting Mild all over the toilet walls in the main building, food all over the floor and cooking surfaces, mold in the fridges, fire extinguishers not in date and empty The list just just goes on and on I’ve taken plenty of pictures as I work in health and safety and will be reporting this place to the local Inverness HSE department
Black mold in toilets
Broken walkways
Mild in fridges, completely dirty
Disgusting kitchen area

Not impressed as really cold

Room clean , bed dreadfully hard, room cold/ freezing to sit in , no heating on luckily there were bunk beds so used the quilt off one of them and the quilt on double bed . Was really cold though and couldn’t get anything dry. The bathroom door did not close or stay shut , so from the glass front door u could see right in to whoever was in the bathroom . Neighbours were very noisey so walks paper thin. Not impressed it was a roof over my head . Not the best stay I’ve ever had. I came from Applecross Bunkhouse hostel and it was warm and cosy this was not unfortunately . Staff were nice though .

Not as described

We booked this over another option as it said towels were included... they are not. Received a message on the morning of our stay sauing check out 10am - when I booked it said 10.30. Outside Bathroom window is broken so it doesn't lock and the bathroom door doesnt close so no privacy from strangers or family, we couldnt leave anything in the room during the day as anyone could have come in very easily! Windowsill and blind in the bathroom were filthy Room is the most basic I've ever been in with the beds, a mirror and a set of drawers. I messaged them x2 but have no reply. This hostel needs seriously upgraded for comfort, safety, and enjoyment. I would not recommend
Shower had long dark hairs in
The bathroom window - it was like this upon arrival so unless it was done by someone breaking in before our arrival, they were aware...
Some dirt

Well, you can't expect much from a hostel, it's not like a hotel. But I must say it's a pleasant stay and their assistance for check-in is also nice since it's a self-check-in, I overlooked my email because of the poor coverage. We called them and it was a nice approach.
