Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
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

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
