Beauty place to stay, excellent location. Comfortable beds, excellent sized rooms. The only thing is rooms are not sound proof. We were right by the front door, so we heard everyone coming and going, bring ear plugs.

Room was very small but was cute and clean Refrigerator not accessible after a certain time to keep drinks cold. Shower was tiny. My husband is an average size man and literally had to get out in order to lather up. Room needs some sort of fan.

This guest house has no staff on site but access easy using pin codes supplied. I had the single room which was adequate with comfortable bed and tiny en-suite. Some noise from other guests and the walls are thin but quiet overnight. I would prefer a hotel but these expensive in Inverness.

Excellent Stay

The stay was very good and the owners were excellent and sorted out my issue with parking. To enhance the stay further larger bathroom towels would be good a guide to how the television works and to sort out the small interference on the TV. These are very small problems for a very excellent facility which I will be using again.

The space was nicely accommodated and quick response time from the host. However, we were put on the first floor and could hear all the upstairs guest check out in the early morning as they came downstairs with their luggage and opened/closed the front door continuously. The shower also was hard to adjust to the right temperature.

Did not like or feel safe from a health and safety aspect of the guest house being unmanned . No personal service or welcoming hosts. Lazy business model. Seems no one in this world wants to connect with anyone anymore. Maybe the instagram lovers would like this hands off business.. I did not.

Sarah

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The room was clean and very well put together. Everything you need. The reason for the less then perfect review is because of two issues.One major in our opinion and one frustrating and not sure what the property owner can do. First was the bed.I’ve sleep on floors more comfortable.The double/full bed was actually two smaller mattresses pushed together.The uneven gap between them made sleeping terrible and the mattresses themselves were NOT comfortable to begin with. We did contact them and they responded quickly saying they would check into it but whatever they did made no difference. A thick mattress topper MIGHT have solved the problem short term. Other issues was noise from seagulls that roost at night outside. Horribly noisy! NOT sweet little pigeon or songbird sounds but a shrieking loud “what the heck was that!!?”noise. Earplugs are a must. I don’t know what the owners can do (if anything) but it’s worth knowing before you book. Maybe they are only there this time of year?? Between those two issues we almost went to a hotel for our last night to get some sleep.
