The room is very nice but heated up overnight and the controls did not seem to work. The bus service was limited so I had to leave on the first bus to ensure I caught my train. I had been staying in Inverness at a nice B and B earlier for the same cost, very nicely presented, near town and I got breakfast so this had far less going for it.

Usually I would see the reviews on a place like this and rate it well because it's exactly as it's described. I went into this with very low expectations, and they were still not met. Issues with the cards/locks, no garbage bin in the room/bathroom, slamming doors at all hours, bathroom light that doesn't turn off, no handsoap, and the biggest issue of all....insanely HOT!! It was an average/slightly chilly day out so no idea if they cranked the heat or what because there's no logical reason why it should have been that hot. My chocolate bar melted into a puddle on the desk. The fan they supplied felt like it was blowing hot air because of how hot it was and that was with the window wide open letting the cool breeze in. So uncomfortable!

No frills stay.
Difficult to locate had to ask security. Understandably basic room which was clean. The bathroom light & extractor fan automatically engage on entry & lasts 30 mins, noisy at night unable to switch off. Kitchen/tv room pleasant but not sure what I could use & no information regarding nearest shop, bus times etc. Location & view was fine & pleasant walk through grounds into town.

Very basic accommodation and not value for money
Room and bed is very basic and not value for the money they are charging. There is no A/C or fans in the room and all the rooms and corridors are very hot and difficult to sleep on a hot summer day. Campus is relatively new and being developed, but accommodation is around 45 to 50 mins walk from the city centre.

Hostel conditions at hotel prices
Pretty disappointed overall with my stay. Had there been other options when booking last minute I wouldn't have booked. The room had long black hairs all over the floor and bed when I arrived. The sheet was very thin with dirt on it. Issues that had to be fixed like the window getting stuck and the shower tap being stuck on scalding hot. The fire doors whilst adding security, slam loudly at all hours of the night and the window had to be open at all times since the heating was high. The young guy at reception was very nice and tried to fix what he could but clearly run off his feet with a lot to cover. Recommend that management higher better cleaners and set prices at a lower level to match the hostel like conditions.

its fair to say we won't be staying again. Points to take away from this experience. students running around shouting in the early hours of the morning doesn't help when you have a hard day ahead of you. sharing a kitchen with the students. If you decide to rent out rooms you have to have the option for a tv surely? nope not here!! The advert on expedia is misleading and doesn't give you the true picture of what it would be like for someone staying.

Not ideal for warm summer nights
Clean, comfortable but basic accommodation, value for money. Only real complaint is that no provision is made for warmer weather. Being a new build i'm sure it is well insulated for cold weather, but no means of cooling in warm weather has been provided. I'm not expecting air con but 28C is not a comfortable temperature for sleeping! It wasn't a heatwave the night I stayed and I can't imagine staying here if it was!

Overpriced room,
After finding the place we were shown to a room, it was basic to say the least, it was a bed for the night, no more no less, £75 was cheeky, in my opinion it was £40 at most

This place needs to provide a better description of where to check in. Dorm rooms on a college campus. Not much nearby for food, etc, so eat before you arrive or bring your own. Taxi driver at train station knew how to get there, but not exactly where to drop us off. The check in building is not where you stay. We had to walk around in the dark a while before we found it, and no one around to ask. Building 7! Needs a big sign! Other than that, it’s an ok, inexpensive place to crash for an early morning flight. Taxi to airport was 20 pounds. You get a key card for several entrance doors. Each unit has its own bathroom, with about 7 units per “flat”, and a full kitchen. Beds not the greatest, could feel the springs. Towels provided, but no toiletries, so need your own, even soap. Not much noise from students and no bed bugs like other reviews mentioned. Simple, no frills, very clean place.

Yikes!
When we arrived to the area we couldn't find the reception as the college has a building labelled reception and signs directing you too it, but it is not a part of the accommodation. There were several other people looking for it as well. We tried calling for help with no answer. When we informed the front desk the admitted they knew about the problem but had done nothing to fix it. The guy checking us in was nice, but clearly overwhelmed. The room was fairly clean but small. The mattress was thin and uncomfortable with springs poking you all night. It was definitely not a bed for two people as advertised. And, the pillows were thin and clearly old. The kitchen hard overflowing garbage, no recycling and no dish soap. When we asked the front desk about this they said they didn't know who took out the garbage handed us a large black garbage bag and informed us soap was not provided for the dishes. One last note; there is not enough parking for all of the guests and it's very unclear as to where you can and cannot park outside of the parking lots directly outside your building. I understand it's a cheap accommodation, but this is beyond unacceptable.
