I had such a great time at the hostel! All the staff are very friendly and there is a very welcoming vibe throughout the hostel. Great location to explore the beautiful isles and surrounding countryside. Would definitely recommend to anyone!

Overall a great experience at the hostel, everyone made me feel welcome and I was very sad to be leaving. the hostel is a lovely place to spend time in with lots to do and see with the ferries and Tower providing amble opportunity to explore the surrounding area. Hostel was awesome and staff were so welcoming and friendly, would highly recommend it!

The hostel is a comfortable and cosy hostel. It was a great time in nature and away from the big city! Will definitely come back!

As soon as I arrived, I was immediately welcomed into the hostel gang. Everybody was incredibly kind and chill, super easy to get along with. The work was easy, about 24 hours, but a lot of it is sitting in the common area doing your own thing until guests come in or need help. Housekeeping is making beds, cleaning bathrooms, vacuuming, and folding laundry. You're usually done with the cleaning before the actual end of the shift. Surrounding area was gorgeous, highly recommend it for those that like to hike or see the isles. Not much nightlife, but a super sweet town.

This was my first Worldpackers experience and it was better than any expectation I had. The host, Indy, made me feel like family and three weeks really just wasn't enough. Even with the working hours (which are reasonable and advertised properly), I was able to explore the surrounding areas and even further around Scotland. My tasks were housekeeping, morning porter, and night porter. Since the hostel isn't too big, the work was easy and doesn't take up a lot of your day. Volunteers and guests mingle, creating one amazing experience that I'll never forget. 100% recommend! :)

I had the best time at the hostel. Indy runs the show very smoothly and is a great communicator. The team I worked with were a dream and the tasks were super reasonable. Super good facilities and a homey comfy feel. Very good vibes.

I had a great great time in the hostel!! Indy is a really great manager, and I got the opportunity to meet amazing people during my stay. As I was there during low season, it was very chill and I had plenty of time to explore the wonderful Highlands! Thank you very much for this amazing opportunity!!! 🫶🫶🫶🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

My partner and I stayed an extra month as we enjoyed the experience so much. The hours are fair as well as the work that's expected of you. I have some great memories of the hostel, both with guests and the other volunteers. The kitchen is spacious and the rest of the facilities are great for a hostel. The town itself is also worth exploring. It's tiny but there's a lot to see and the surrounding islands are easy and affordable to get to. Expect to play lots of pool.
