No sleep due to uncomfortable bed and traffic/train noise. Carpet in room v dirty.
Pros:

Staff very friendly and helpful

Cons:

Hotel needs a refurb or deep clean. Shabby and no attention to detail. Located on a main road therefore very noisy.

Excellent hotel, with great staff, pleasant rooms and good food
Pros:

Very cosy pub, nicely decorated, lovely atmosphere. It is only a 15 minute walk to the centre of Inverness.
The staff is very friendly and helpful always available to help. There is a very active sports bar with big TV and many pool tables and dartboard.
Our double room was on the 1st floor and quiet during the night, and we were given help with taking luggage upstairs. The room was spacious, and bathroom a nice size with space for toiletries and nice big towels. The breakfast was plentiful, special discount for guests given and there was a special guest menu option of dinner for £20 for 2 courses or £30 for three courses.
The food came quickly and was well prepared. Overall an enjoyable experience.

Cons:

Some attention needed to fix humidity problems, black mould in the bathroom and some peeling paint outside the window.
However, it was clear that a lot of renovation had been already done.
