We were very impressed by our stay here. It was very nice to have access to the kitchen for our dinner and they had a very nicely priced breakfast available for us in the morning, which was extra nice because we needed to leave early. I would say that the location is "kind of" walkable. You definitely can walk to a grocery store and some restaurants, but it was a bit further than would strictly be called convenient. It was a nice walk though! The neighborhood is very nice and there are sidewalks the whole way. The room was great, the beds were comfortable, the shower was hot, and it was just what we needed!

Surprised by the single bed in the dorm. I don’t have to have anyone sleeping above me. Barely any plug sockets - was two by the door for a room of 4 people. The bedside lamp was very loud. You can tell the hostel has been around a while but still clean and friendly staff. Big communal kitchen and lots of seating. Would recommend again.

This is a great place if you don’t mind being a little way out of the centre of Inverness. It was pretty quiet during the evenings but I had at quite a noisy room next to me which woke me up in the morning! Could do with an update on some facilities that other hostels have, such as usb chargers by the beds. Otherwise, good value for money and I slept well.
