Property was under renovation, I can allow for that. However, peeling wall paint, uneven cots, not really beds, broken heaters was too much for the price. The owner/ manager is a nice guy. The housekeeper is awful. There was no housekeeping, we had to use the same few towels for three days. One of our part suffered what look like bed bug or flea bites. The worst thing was the noise from the night club next door. Ear plugs were not adequate for the heavy percussion. Way overpriced.

This property is disgusting. Filth, stinks of smoke. No heat, broken windows, broken furniture. I can’t believe any positive reviews of this place were written by anyone who stayed there.

The property is undergoing a spruce up, but the room was clean, location was convenient, staff were good and helpful. We had a visually challenged family member the front desk made a note and assured us that if the was an evacuation then the hotel would get them out first.

The owner was new and it was obvious that he is trying to improve and upgrade. He was fair in giving us a refund when we found bed bugs in the room.

Great location, but this place has seen better days. I had stayed here before and liked it, but this time I didn’t feel welcomed by the staff. The beds were clean and comfortable at least, but our carpets were filthy. I also came to the room in the afternoon to find people in the room fixing the shower that I didn’t know was broken (I used it that morning and it was fine). If there was something wrong with the shower, then why did they give us this room? After they fixed the shower they left loose screws and debris on the shower floor.

Okay for a night or two if you're not too fussy. The continental breakfast was good. The bedding was a bit musty and hadn't been aired but it was clean enough. There wasn't any towels or shower gel/soap so I'm glad I had some with me. Overall, a bit overpriced and not really value for money. I don't think I'd stay there again.

Central to The city and able to walk to the river , shops, restaurants and pubs. Directly across the street from a live music pub , so a little noisy but finished early. The service was friendly and efficient. Breakfast was plentiful and had a good variety of continental items. Room and Bathroom a little tired, but sufficiently comfortable for a 1 night stay. We were able to park directly across the road using the loading area until 8am the next morning which was handy.

Absolutely terrible. Filthy. One of our rooms wasn't available so they moved us down the street. We were separated from our traveling companions, and the place down the street was so loud that we were not able to sleep until after 2am because of live music across the street. Room was literally shaking. DO NOT STAY HERE. We moved for our second day - much nicer hotels in Inverness at a similar price point.
