The 6-bed room for females had more than ample space for 6, with lockers and in-room sink; baths-toilets out of room. Great lighting at beds, over sink and ceiling. Great forest view from an opening window for ventilation. Spotless cleaning and efficiency throughout. Team spirit, throughout - no one seemed to be relegated to a specific task - all customer oriented. Great experience! Highly recommend, will if, in area, return again. Great self=use kitchen and dining area, including close to super-market, and bus station for local buses and distant buses. Highly recommend - all types of solo/group travelers!

Bedroom had a lovely outlook over trees and open fields and it was very spacious. It was extremely clean and the bed was very comfortable. The shower worked well, storage was more than ample enough and everything else was thoughtfully supplied such as a towel and the bed was already made up which I appreciated. The hostel is ideally placed for a pleasant walk into town and at the bottom of the road is a convenient bus stop which takes you directly to Inverness Airport. The Dining Room was clean and able to take groups as well as have a enough space for single travellers. The systems in the kitchen for storing food was really great as there were two big fridges and everyone was friendly.

I am only 5 ft 2 inches and the duvet was too small and bit short even for me.

I loved the welcoming vibe from the reception staff, their communication was excellent and the cleaning staff member who cleaned my room (108) was such a nice person. The entrance to the hostel is exceptional. The communal dining area is a wee bit dated but perfectly functional. The kitchen was great and had absolutely everything you needed to cook with (and more!). The rooms, on the nights I have stayed, were super quiet and the showers were incredible. I was very impressed to see the free shower gel, washing up liquid and even free coffee! Thank you all for another lovely stay 🙂

I booked with my partner the en-suit room so had plenty of space, good shower and toilet facilities. Liked the fact it had parking and someone in reception. We just finished the nc500, so a bed, shower, and warmth were well needed, and this place proivded all of that as well as a self serivce kitchen, which is nice. You can also book if you wish i saw a buffet style breakfast that they provided, which is reactively cheap, but i didn't go for this option, so I'm not sure about quality.

If anything just the fact it felt a little dated in the corridor going to our room, however not a deal breaker for the price and things you do get.

I booked a single room with en-suite. Compared to other available accommodation, this we significantly cheaper. Staying in hostel with a kitchen beat a hotel, because I could cook my own dinner - particularly worthwhile since the hostel is located over 1/2 mile from the city centre facilities.; the kitchen is also a great place to chat. My room was large (there was evidence it had once been a bunk room. The shower was excellent.

Nothing really; it's worth being aware it is a relatively large building. It was a bit of a walk from my room to the kitchen.

Good value for money booking direct. Clean rooms, bathrooms & kitchen. Wooden beds don't squeak and mattresses are comfortable. Bedding clean. The décor is better than most hostels. Free WiFi with strong signal. Kitchen facilities very good. Smart reception area. Quiet at night because it's away from city centre. Laundry facilities. Tourist Information. Showers powerful & plenty of hot water. Plenty of plush communal seating and a good sized dining area.

Relatively minor issues that wouldn't deter me from returning but need mentioning: One double electric socket is insufficient in a dorm room with 6 beds and only 4 lockers so 2 people have to go without if full occupancy. Needs individual socket/USB per bunk in this day & age. Inadequate ventilation in shower rooms and not enough hooks/shelves to put clothes/toiletries. Toilets not very private: 3 narrow flimsy cubicles with a gap at bottom. No shop nearby; need to walk into city centre, 15 mins. Reception staff could be a little more friendly.

An excellent place to stay for exploring Inverness and surrounding areas for a day or two, especially if, like me, you want a break that doesn't cost a fortune. The facilities are typical youth hostel - basic, functional but everything you need for a comfortable stay. The self-catering kitchen is large and well-equipped. I took an en-suite bedroom that was clean, light, quiet, warm and good value. The hostel would take large parties. I don't know what it would be like then but mid-week in November I only saw adults, with a wide range of ages. The atmosphere was quiet and calming.

The duvet on the single bed was a bit on the small size.

Loved loved loved the night staff - they were extremely helpful and helped carry my very-heavy suitcases up 3 flights of stairs. I honestly don't know what I would have done without them. Hostel is great, looked fun, amazing kitchen, lots of people around so highly recommend for all young travellers.

We had requested a room on the ground floor, as I was travelling with my aged mom, but when I reached they said all rooms were booked. They "upgraded" me to a private room, however it was in a poor condition and not comfortable, with poor ventilation. However, it was their supposedly "backup" room, so not sure if all private rooms are bad.

I had a great private room, comfortable bed. When I booked I actually thought I was booking a shared room so definitely not a bad price. It seemed very clean and like there could be a good atmosphere as well, though I was only staying one night so didn't get a chance to meet anyone. Altogether I'd stay here again for sure.

I hate early check outs before 11am, 10am check out is a little early. My room was a bit noisy in the morning, could hear everything going on at 7am in all the rooms roundabout, doors closing, toilets flushing, people talking. it's also a bit far out of town.

Liked being able to store luggage prior to check in. Liked the kitchen and eating facilities.

We walked way out of our way from the bus station trying to find the hostel and went to a home at 12 Victoria Road that was not the hostel and the owner kindly directed us around the corner. It was exhausting... The reading light in my lower bunk in rm 153 was broken and I didn't travel with a towel so couldn't have a shower or dry my hands in the female washroom as the drier was not working. My partner, also in a dorm room, 152, had a towel on his bunk and was able to have a shower. We were told at check out that that was an oversight on the part of staff. It should have been made clear on booking that one needed to bring a towel.
