I don’t understand the negative comments. The room is adorable, perfectly located on the main street of Fort William, the bathroom was clean, and for that price the value is unbeatable. The broken window lets in a bit of cold air and noise.

I had to book last minute and the room was ready and clean. It was o arrived but Firt William is busy and booked out. It was a comfortable night and I was glad to find somwhere. The owner was communicable and kind. Tea coffee were a nice addition. Heaters in room also. Quiet and c9nsiderate people in other rooms. Shower worked ok. Altogether a great little find if stuck. Reviews dont really say how comfy and clean it is. Great location too. Entrance leaves a lot to be desired

We arrived in front of a shabby first floor at 16.00, as arranged, to find a sign with a phone number to contact. The manager did not answer repeated calls, messages or emails

A good budget option in central Fort William, half the cost of nearby hotels. I’ve stayed a few times now, and the location is great for the Camusnagaul ferry if you’re starting the Cape Wrath Trail—you catch it right across the road. The manager is very friendly and answered all my questions. Some parts feel a bit dated and worn, but everything works; the shower is decent and the bed is very comfortable. A fresh coat of paint and minor repairs would help, but I’d still stay again.

The beds were comfortable and the place stayed quiet, and the kettle and mugs were handy, but it was a let‑down that no tea or coffee came with them, even though a coffee drink and milk were supplied. The location is prime, though Fort William was packed with people lining up for restaurants. We booked at the last minute, so we appreciated having a room with beds instead of having to camp in the wind. We paid £72 for the night for two of us and had a kettle, yet the shared bathroom was mouldy in spots and dirty, with hairs in the plug holes and on many surfaces. The entrance to the building before the stairs looked like a construction site, and we wondered whether the accommodation met rental regulations such as a fire escape and alarm. The room had no TV, and even though it wasn’t that cheap at £72, the overall experience fell short.
