The staff was curt, the beds like cardboard over springs. The place is clean, though the women’s lab was out of toilet paper in two stalls an entire day. Rooms are quite crowded.

We stayed at Inverness for a few nights and happy with private room, kitchen/dining facilities and laundry. But honestly our highlight was George the cat. If only every accommodation had a resident cat the world would be a far better place.

Property allowed flexible check in due to delays in our trip. Booking was most likely mixed up with another as original booking was for 2 females in double bed booking. Check in receipt listed 2 males for one bed for occupancy of 2. Property location was what we were looking for along our journey traveling.

Never complained about mattresses before, but broken springs digging in ribs and not even one electric outlet make for long night. Kitchen wonderful, but I'm writing this at 4 am, because for the first time in over 35 years of sleeping in hostels can't sleep.

We were very impressed by our stay here. It was very nice to have access to the kitchen for our dinner and they had a very nicely priced breakfast available for us in the morning, which was extra nice because we needed to leave early. I would say that the location is "kind of" walkable. You definitely can walk to a grocery store and some restaurants, but it was a bit further than would strictly be called convenient. It was a nice walk though! The neighborhood is very nice and there are sidewalks the whole way. The room was great, the beds were comfortable, the shower was hot, and it was just what we needed!
