I had a fantastic stay at a hostel in a beautiful area of the world. the location was perfect, with a pub just down the road where I enjoyed delicious meals and breakfast. the room was clean, quiet, and warm, with a comfortable bed. the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, and the common room was lovely and cosy. the hostel even had a drying room, which was the best I've ever seen. It was a great experience overall.
The presence of mosquitoes due to the nearby river, but that couldn't be helped.

The hostel is in an ideal location right next to a beautiful river, offering a peaceful and scenic atmosphere. It is also conveniently close to a restaurant and the town centre, providing easy access to amenities. Guests can explore the stunning Glencoe area, and the hostel offers comfortable and well-equipped rooms, with en-suite bathrooms, TVs, and kitchen facilities. the helpful and welcoming staff ensure a pleasant stay.
The drying room in the hostel may not be well heated, making it difficult to dry wet clothing overnight.

Had a fantastic Xmas stay with friends at this hostel. The location was perfect, just a short walk to town and hiking trails. The rooms were ensuite and had blackout blinds, which was great for sleeping. The common area and kitchen were spacious and well-equipped, with a pool table and big TV. The owner was friendly and gave us great recommendations for activities.
The drying room was not very warm and our clothes and boots were still damp in the morning. The shared showers and drying rooms were over capacity due to the crowded tent-camping grounds.

This place is in such a great location! It's right on the West Highland Way, which made it super convenient after a long day of climbing. Plus, there are restaurants and a supermarket nearby, so everything I needed was within walking distance. The room was clean and the ensuite had a powerful shower, which was perfect after a tiring day. The staff here are amazing - they were always there to help if I needed anything, but also gave me space to relax and unwind.
I can't recommend this hotel enough. It truly exceeded my expectations in every way possible.

Stayed for two nights over Easter with friends, and we enjoyed the peaceful location and proximity to great hiking trails. the private shower and toilet added a bit of comfort to our budget, friendly stay, and we appreciated the eco, friendly shower button. the drying facilities were also handy after a rainy day hike.

We had a wonderful stay in this cozy hostel located in a picturesque area next to a rushing stream. The cleanliness was impressive, and we appreciated the well-equipped kitchen and dining room. Staff were friendly and helpful, providing clear check-in and check-out instructions by email. The location on the hills made it a perfect base to explore the nearby Grey Mare's Tail trail.
Cannot find any fault.

We stayed at this place and had a wonderful experience. The staff were incredibly helpful, even being available outside of regular hours. The room may have been small for the three of us, but considering the price and location, it was perfect! The kitchen and dining area were spacious and comfortable, making it a great place to relax and enjoy a meal. We also appreciated how clean and well-equipped the rooms were, with en-suite bathrooms and full bedding provided. The community kitchen was a bonus, with a variety of appliances, fridges, and even a little grocery sharing. Cooking there gave us the chance to meet new people and the password entry made it super convenient. this hotel is definitely above average and offers a luxurious and comfortable experience.

Our stay at the Blackwater hostel was fantastic! We got great value for our money with a clean and comfortable room, and the well-equipped kitchen made cooking a breeze. The location was perfect, with a grocery shop and pub conveniently close by. The staff were friendly, helpful, and gave us a warm welcome.
The breakfast menu could be improved with more variety.

Great stay, comfy beds and well-equipped kitchen. Location was convenient and close to local shops. The drying room was excellent for drying out gear overnight.
The shower room was quite small and cramped, and the drying room could be a little better heated. But overall, a fantastic place to stay for a business trip.

Our last stop on the driving tour of the Highlands, we found a perfect spot to explore the natural beauty of the surrounding area. We hiked to Grey Mare's waterfall, just a stone's throw away from our accommodation. the clean room and ensuite bathroom had everything we needed, and the friendly staff made sure our stay was hassle-free. the well-equipped shared kitchen and lounge area were a bonus.
