Cute place, could be lots of fun but neither the room heater or the water heater worked. We had to scrounge extra duvets from the unused bed to try to stay warm. And we couldn't shower because the water heater was in the blink.

No hot water and builders outside the window....av

Not good. Black mold around the ill fitting door. Stains on the walls but worst of all no hot water. Staying with children, one with a medical requirement that means she has to bathe twice daily, no running hot water was awful. She had to shower in freezing cold water. We knew this place was going to be basic but this was bad. Too late to find somewhere else to stay we were stuck witb it. Along with no hot water. Building work began early in the morning with men in high viz working all around, great when you open the curtains to find them working outside the window. Parking was also a pain. All in all I would not recommend this place.

The facilities were old, but since they were for our family's exclusive use, we had no inconveniences. However, the shared kitchen hours (7:30 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.) were limited, and could be extended.

The picture on the website posted is not the real thing, and be aware of the room condition. What I have booked online is not the room we sleep in. No towels, sheets stink, floor dirty,pillows stinks, and the worse of it all is blood stain all over the comforter. Be prepared not to sleep, all night banging,noise all over the property, people running and screaming. There is no feont desk and ni one ro rech out too in case of any issues. Now it your choice

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
