Feel private, like being at home. I like having a kitchen where I can cook.

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

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 .

It was well priced, room with on suite clean and comfortable beds
Communal kitchen had enough cooking facilities 2 ovens double set of hobs microwave 2 kettles 4slice and 2 slice toasters 3 large fridges plenty dishes cups and cutlery which you should clean your self before using.
also best to clean table top to your own standard they had 2 t/vs in dinning area which never worked neither did the one in my room I would give an overall rating of 7/10
if I was staying up at lochness again i would come back to them

Our room was occupied by another person. It was sorted quickly but did cause an initial inconvenience and convenience.

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

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.

Very pleasant stay.
Had a great overnight stay. Very clean and welcoming the mattress wasn't the greatest but still managed a good sleep. I never used the kitchen or dining area but it was very clean and if I was here for longer I wouldn't have an issue. Room 2 was cosy everything worked i.e. heating etc. Staff on site were very friendly and made me feel welcome.

Property is in need of a good spruce up. Broken door handles , and window locks. No towels are provided , stating it’s a hostel as a get out clause. Self check in / out. Was very quiet as a plus point …
Sadly over priced for the offerings
