    No breakfast, but within feet of available eateries and food stores and the kitchen on property if more than free cereal is needed.

    My second time staying at the Black Isle Hostel. It's nothing fancy, but it's a great option in the center of Inverness. Basic facilities, small rooms, and plenty of showers (when it's not busy). Beds could be more comfortable, but I'm not...

    I love that they have separate bathrooms -lots of showers and toilets and sinks. All rooms are only one flight up. The kitchen is small - but the biggest problem is people leave a mess.

    Dude working in the evenings at reception was super friendly and helpful. Pretty much across the street from the bus station. Their beer and pizzas are phenomenal (in the brewery that owns this place). Free tea, coffee, and cereals

    The location of the hostel was great!! Right in the city center. Moreover, it has a small but a nice kitchen so you can make your own breakfast or dinner, which is nice.

    It’s a really nice Hostel, the Rooms are easy, yet very clean. The lounge upstairs is the perfect place to get comfy and relax after an adventurous day.
