Provider-sourced guest reviews.
La chambre est grande et l'espace repas à côté de la kitchenette pratique. Le parking devant la chambre est gratuit. Il y a un supermarché juste à côté pour les courses d'alimentation.
Il était précisé que le lit était petit mais sans dimensions exactes, ce n'est pas facile de l'imaginer. Il y a une voie de chemin de fer juste derrière le bâtiment donc du bruit. Pas de train la nuit mais le premier train passe vers 7h30 ce qui est un peu tôt pour des vacances. En contrepartie, nous avons pu voir le "Poudlard Express" de très près un matin 😂
Jó elhelyezkedés. Barátságos, segítőkész személyzet. Jó felszereltség.
Az ajtók automatikusan csukódnak, kicsit hangos.
El chico de recepción muy amable y lo explico todo genial
Las camas son horribles, ya se que es una residencia de estudiantes pero calidad precio no tiene por donde cogerlo
Staff is very nice, room is good size and with shower and toilet in the room. Kitchen is good, but hob is no size on it to judge which one is which one. And with no tea bags offer.
Shower is not very clean. Kitchen hob is no size on it to judge which one is which one. And with no tea bags offer.
OK for a night or two
Good location, comfortable bed, good value for money
It did not look like the room was properly cleaned. There was hair on the toilet seat, the floor looked dusty, and the shower did not drain properly.
Great location next to LIDL and Morrisons supermarket. Decent size studio flat with ensuite toilet and shower cubicle that gives you complete privacy. All kitchen appliances ( the fridge, electric cooker, microwave, kettle) were in a perfect working order. The view from the window was amazing, you could see a famous Jacobite stem train a couple of times per day. The staff were helpful and friendly. Romantic and quiet atmosphere.
A small double bed was obviously not comfortable for two adults though. The shower needed better maintenance.
Überwachter Gratis-Parkplatz, die Zimmer sind einfach eingerichtet, das Bett ist nicht besonders bequem, aber für einen kurzen Aufenthalt ausreichend. Es gibt eine Gemeinschaftsküche, die wir allerdings nicht genutzt haben. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und gut drauf, immer für einen Witz zu haben :)
Résidence étudiante proche des bus, de la gare ferroviaire, d'un lidl et d'un centre commercial. Les serviettes de toilette sont fournis. La cuisine est équipée de l'essentiel en terme d'ustencils par contre il n' y a pas d'éponges et de torchons. Il y a un ascenseur pour accéder aux étages.
Le lieu est propre dans l'ensemble mais ce n'est pas un ménage approfondie digne des hôtels. Là on voit que le lieu est utilisé le reste de l'année (trace au mur, hotte pas nettoyée par exemple).
Kuchnia na miejscu. Parking. Dość wygodne łóżko - dość wąskie. Inpost pod budynkiem. Bardzo pomocna recepcja.
Location
Very expensive for this type of accommodation (like a hostel).
it is near train station and can do laundary
so simple and the water is too hot to shower
Ikke et bra overnattingssted.
Renhold var svært dårlig, måtte bytte rom.
L'uso della cucina
Il letto da una piazza e mezza appoggiato da un lato alla parete
Personale molto gentile
Stanza molto piccola e letto non sufficiente per 2 persone
Not clean - pieces of hair everywhere Mattress was missing the soft top part so you could feel every spring No water in the morning
The staff were very helpful and friendly. The location is great very handy for the town and room was spotless.
The kitchen bin seemed to get overlooked in the daily clean.
It was local to everything that I needed. Staff were friendly and helpful. The room was nice and clean and the bed was comfortable.
I found the property ok. Maybe a better frying pan and cooking utensils to use with it. But I got by with what was there so I was ok.
Good location, clean and comfortable studio accommodation, very friendly staff
Quite difficult to find as no sign on the building and 3 consecutive streets with the same name. Needed a key card to get into the building so we couldn't go in to find someone. evenetually someone found us wandering about and introduced himself as security. Room very hot - it was 20 degrees outside and thermostat inside said 27 with limited opening of the windows.
Bien situé et accueil chaleureux. La machine et le sèche-linge sont très utiles !
Le matelas plutôt inconfortable et la propreté limitée de la cuisine.
Très bon accueil de la part du réceptionniste, grande chambre et cuisine partagée propre et plutôt bien équipée (même s’il manque 2-3 choses). Bien situé également, à 2 pas d’un Lidl / McDo / station essence, et à 30min en voiture du viaduc de Glenfinnan
La chambre reste cher pour une si petite ville
Era lo que me esperaba. Muy basico pero correcto
Tuvimos un problema con el agua. Por la mañana no teniamos, por lo que nos pudimos duchar. Entiendo que una averia puede pasar a todo el mundo, pero en un hotel/residencia de estudiantes creo que tendrian que tener un sistema alternativo para las urgencias. Tampoco me gusto el olor que hacian los pasillos. Estava poco ventilado 😬
Una presa de pel, et diuen que es una habitacio per dos persones i no caben dos persones en el llit.

Bien situé avec un parking Personnel accueillant
Staff were fantastic!! Excellent desk to do some work
It was terribly hot in the room....faced west...even with a fan
Il custode è stato gentilissimo e super disponibile
El trato del personal
Mala higiene, colchones muy incomodos
The staff was very kind.
L’emplacement.
Il faisait très très chaud dans la chambre !
Mancanza di utensili da cucina, camera molto rumorosa
Good location to town and Ben Nevis. Lots of parking. Welcome staff member was brilliant.
Shower didn’t drain. Bed was very small but was okay for one night
Very friendly staff to do check in
Very warm room but fan was provided
Stanza da campus, quindi piccola , però molto pulita, come le stanze comuni, il personale è fantastico, la posizione è comoda, dista pochi minuti dal centro, in più ha la Lidl frontale e la stazione dei treni adiacente, (dalla camera potete vedere passare il treno a vapore di Harry Potter).
Come l'altra struttura mancava il phon e il materasso essendo a molle risulta scomodo.
Nada
Me parece un precio desorbitado para lo que ofrecen. El colchón horroroso de incómodo a parte de ser superpequeño, todo muy sucio (sobretodo la cocina que daba asco) y para colmo el chico que nos recepcionó no pudo ser mas borde. Si puedes conseguir otra cosa no te quedes aqui
Niente, tranne il custode molto gentile.
Il bagno era sporco e c'erano capelli ovunque. La camera troppo cara per la camera data, piccola e senza alcun servizio. Il letto troppo piccolo per due persone.
La posizione è buona e sufficentemente vicino al centro di fort William per metterti di andare a piedi in centro a mangiare. Inoltre è presente davanti al campus un campeggio gratuito.
Le stanze non sono ben isolate a livello acustico, quindi ogni porta che viene chiusa nelle vicinanze è udibile.
Staff accogliente Posizione
Sporca Il letto più scomodo su cui abbia mai dormito !
Tiene aparcamiento y está a unos pasos del Lidl (las vistas de mi habitación eran al cartel de Lidl) y a unos pocos más del pueblo. El personal encantador.
No estaba del todo limpio y el colchón era muy fino, pobres los estudiantes que duermen ahí todo el año escolar. El aire acondicionado no lo podías regular por lo que había que estar abriendo o cerrando la ventana todo el rato. Para el precio que es podrían tener un colchón mejor.
Location was good - very convenient for the station / supermarket / town centre. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
Be warned, rooms are not doubles. They are small double beds which are not suitable for two adults. Rooms are also tiny and poorly equipped (e.g. no bins!) and the mattresses are about as uncomfortable as it would be possible to imagine. Rooms very hot (in fairness it was very un-Fort William-like weather). Kitchen woefully badly equipped. Not good value for money at all, as it wasn't cheap.
Clean, close to supermarkets and city centre
Is not worth this high price (very basic room)
Partir plus tôt
Quand on réserve un logement étudiant, on sait très bien à quoi s'attendre : on accepte une petite chambre et on s'habitue au bruit de la rue, des couloirs ou des voisins. C'est le jeu avec ce type de bâtiment et ce n'est absolument pas une surprise. Par contre, la saleté et l'état du matériel sont inacceptables. À mon arrivée, la chambre était dans un tel état que j'ai dû passer l'aspirateur moi-même pour que ce soit vivable. Les parties communes étaient tout aussi sales. Côté salle de bain, l'eau de la douche ne s'évacue pas correctement. Mais le pire reste la literie, qui est honteuse : le matelas est tellement usé qu'on sent directement les ressorts juste en posant la main dessus. Résultat, j'avais réservé pour trois nuits et j'ai fait mes valises au bout de la deuxième. Le lit était une vraie torture et j'avais un besoin vital de trouver un endroit pour dormir correctement. J'ai déjà dormi dans des résidences étudiantes dans d'autres pays et on y trouve toujours un minimum syndical : un endroit propre et un lit passable. Ici, ce contrat de base n'est même pas respecté. Ne vous laissez pas tenter par le prix bas, cela ne compensera jamais la fatigue accumulée.
Die Unterkunft ist sehr nah beim Bahnhof und neben einem großen Supermarkt. Von unserem Zimmer konnte man direkt auf den Jacobite Steam Train schauen. Es war alles sauber und zweckmäßig eingerichtet. Besonders nett war der Mann, der uns in Empfang nahm, er war so freundlich und lustig. Es gibt Seife, allerdings muss man Duschgel und Shampoo mitbringen.
Perfect location, easy to find and near railway station.
Nothing
Near town quite quiet
Not much equipment for cooking
The host
It wasn't very clean. In one of the rooms the shower did not work properly with hot water (too hot) only coming
La stanza era molto grande e la posizione fantastica. Ottimo il parcheggio gratuito per i clienti.
Superfici ed elettrodomestici sporchi e inutilizzabili. Letto "matrimoniale" veramente troppo piccolo e scomodo.
Johnny and ewan were brilliant, so helpful and accommodating during our stay. Studio room was ideal, a great space.
Mattress on bed was very thin and old, not very comfortable
The staff were wonderfully helpful and made us feel very welcome.
We struggle with Scottish shower mixers!
The check in/security staff were very friendly. Room was clean. Perfect location to stay if walking Ben Nevis or surrounding areas. Also very walkable to main town area to get dinner etc.
The mattress was very uncomfortable. It was also a little loud as all the door are heavy fire doors that slam even when trying not to let them. Shower was quite small so probably not suitable for tall people (felt small to us at 5ft 1 and 5ft 6)
Équipements, notamment laverie.

La posizione
La pulizia
The man who checked us in was so friendly and welcoming. The location was perfect for the train station.
This was a terrible stay - the room was disgustingly dirty. Clumps of hair on the floor, food stains on the kettle, hair in the shower.... The bed was also incredibly uncomfortable. A complete waste of money - find somewhere else to stay!
La posizione, la cucina in comune. Il signore che ci ha accolto è stato molto gentile e simpatico e ci ha mostrato tutti i servizi a disposizione. La posizione è ottima, vicino a supermercati e al centro di fort william
La cucina non era molto pulita. Inoltre il personale delle pulizie ci ha svegliate alle 7.45 di mattina poiché urlavano e discutevano nel corridoio. Dovrebbero svolgere le pulizie in altro orario per evitare di svegliare chi ancora soggiorna e soprattutto pulire veramente la cucina.
Limpo, confortável e sossegado. Estacionamento gratuito à porta. Funcionário (Smith) muito atencioso.
Nada!
Super Lage, nahe dem Bahnhof und den Einkaufsmöglichkeiten Nettes Personal und reibungsloses Check In
Es war staubig und Küche war dreckig, kein Abtrocknungstuch in der Küche, schlechte Ausstattung der Kochutensilien. Zudem mussten wir mit der Mikrowelle kochen, da wir die Herdplatte nicht heiss kriegten. Es war sehr hellhörig
Easy to park, easy access to the shops and town centre.
Maybe a small tv in the room would have been nice, otherwise it was everything I needed.
Accueil rapide.
Accueil rapide certes mais même trop… nous sentions que la pause cigarette était pressée. La chambre ressemble aux photos si l’on omet tous les cheveux, poils, poussières et autres désagréments retrouvés au sol, dans la salle de bain, sur le bureau ou dans le lit. Matelas à ressort extrêmement inconfortable. Concernant l’espace de vie commun : nous pouvions nous installer dans un canapé avec une odeur prédominante de poisson et accueillis par la serpillière ! (Qui n’avait pas servie à laver la chambre ..) Je ne recommande pas, encore moins à 150€ la nuit.
Location of the building was ideal. Short walk from centre shops close by.
The room was very basic and tiny. Not what we expected from photos and description. Had trouble gaining access to the property. It states it has reception it doesn't. There is security who we had to contact by phoning Edinburgh. The bed was so uncomfortable, no TV, literally no room to move around the room. No mirror in room other than toilet. The room was uncomfortably warm all evening. Lots of noise from people coming and going from other rooms, partying.
Niets
Heel klein, veel te duur, weinig voorzieningen, slecht en klein bed. Absoluut veel te duur voor wat je krijgt
Le rapport qualité-prix et l'accueil
La literie très fine et bombée peu adaptée à 2 personnes ( sans que le 120 cm.soit un problème, la sonorisation des chambres et bruits des portes lorsqu'elles se ferment
Todo en general aceptable
La cama que nos tocó resultó pequeña, está encajonada contra una pared y hace la estancia poco confortable
Location and value for money. Staff were very helpful.
It’s student union accommodation, so it is what you expect basic.
Meget, meget smalle senge
I enjoyed my stay at these facilities. The address was different from what was listed on the map on Booking: it was even closer to the bus station, which is exactly what I needed for my stay. There were also some good grocery stores closeby. Bed was comfy and the facilities were clean.
The kitchenette was a bit bare bones and the stove top only seemed to have one setting: on or off. It also heated up the entire room.
Location was the only plus.
Bed very uncomfortable. Kitchen not particularly clean. Door to room very heavy - closed on my finger and thought it was broken! We left a day early as very unhappy with this accommodation.
Cortesia dell'uomo alla reception
Abbiamo avuto difficoltà nel trovare l'edificio. Le indicazioni sono poco chiare e non c'è un cartello. Le camere sono minuscole. Dalle foto non si capisce quanto siano effettivamente piccole e anguste. Infine non se ne può piu con questi letti a una piazza e mezza per due adulti!
Alles was goed
Proche du centre Personnel très serviable Parking facile
Lit en 120 petit pour deux personnes Manque de couvert Pas de table pour manger Hygiène douteuse
La stanza era piccola, ma pulita. La posizione era vicina al centro e agli villaggi che abbiamo visitato.
Il letto era scomodo, sembrava di dormire su una tavola di legno.
Logement proche du centre ville avec un parking privé. Nous avons été très bien accueillis. Chambre fonctionnelle avec accès à une cuisine.
Le lit était petit mais pour une nuit, cela est ok.
L'accueil très sympathique.
La chambre et la salle de bain très petite, la difficulté à régler l'eau de la douche afin d'éviter de se faire ébouillanter. Reaction très rapide et efficace du gardien.
Super Lage, Supermarkt nebenan, High Street 7 min zu Fuß, Bus und Zug noch näher, freier Autoparkplatz vor der Tür, Gemeinschaftsküche bestens
Bett etwas zu klein für 2 Erwachsene Großes/scharfes Messer in Küche wäre toll gewesen
