Fine for one night and only one night
Didn’t expect much for the price beyond a place to sleep/eat/shower for a couple nights. The day I got there, 3 of the 4 toilets in the female restroom were clogged beyond use and the other had no toilet paper. This was early afternoon when staff were first alerted. The next day, all 4 toilets were completely clogged and could not be used at all. Staff were again informed of this. I had to leave early the next morning and they were still clogged. You literally could not use the toilets. The bed itself was fine, as well as the room. The common areas were not the cleanest, and the entire place could do with a good clean. Would not recommend for more than a single night.

Great hostel in Inverness
This was a fantastic hostel for a quick trip to Inverness. It's right next to the train and bus station and a quick walk to any major things to do/see around the city. Staff are friendly, facilities are very clean and secure. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an affordable place to stay!

I wouldn’t recommend staying here.
I’m not sure how this place ever got an 8/10! Only 1 of the 4 toilets in the women’s rest room worked and you had to flush it 3-4 times. At least 2 of the bathroom sinks clogged (slow drain). The showers had no where to put your items while showering, no seats or shelves in the bathroom. All of the doors in the entire place were super heavy and shut very fast, so you could hear doors slamming late at night. The bins under the bed only worked if no one was laying on the bottom bunk. You couldn’t pull out your bin. The mattresses were very hard and uncomfortable. I do not recommend this place until they make some upgrades. It was cheap, so you get what you pay for.

The hostel was in a great location and the price was great, however it took me by surprise that the 6 bed rooms were coed with both sexes. I did not like that fact, nor all the stairs that had to be climbed. Not the best option for older travelers.

Good for the price. Rooms were relatively clean and service was very friendly and helpful. Very basic amenities. Room was a little hot and stuffy. Showers were clean and hot, always appreciated. Fantastic location.

Trying to get a 😴 sleep.
Having bunkbeds next to the door in the room is stupid. If you put rubber strips on the inside of doors then people wouldnt hear constant doors banging. Going into a busy bar disabled was intimadating for a non drinker to collect key card. Also after telling you i am disabled you still put me on the top bunk .I couldnt climb up the four steps to the bed. Thankfully a customer swapped beds with me.

if you were in rooms under maybe 15 you got to be on the bar side which is cool and has a secret garden. I was not, so just on the regular side. the lounge was good and social, but the kitchen was small and had no oven, just a couple of hot plates. the bathrooms felt like you needed jandals to use the showers but otherwise all good. the number they put up to call if you needed to drop off luggage didn't work until. you tried without the area code which locals might know but tourists didn't, but figured it out

It was great although the toilets need some sort of fixing most of them were difficult to flush even with nothing in them. Just not enough preasure or something
