I am a seasoned traveller so when I say this is the filthiest hostel I have been to I have alot to compare to. I was bitten all over by bed bugs after staying one night here. They have dark bed linen so it is difficult to see how dirty it really is. The bathrooms are full of mould and rooms have heaps of spiders and spider Web. The man at reception was unhelpful and busy counting money when I asked him for assistance.

The Hosteling Scotland Portree location is a solid fine. It’s basic, no frills but functional. And as with any other hostel, depends a lot on the roommates you get. I stayed in a four bed female dorm with en suite bath. The bath did not have a working fan so it was always humid inside the room, but the shower was big and water pressure was great. However, any amount of shelves in there would have been nice. Beds are fine, not awful but not great. But functional. WiFi works in the room well too which was nice. Lockers are fine too but the top bunks definitely get the better bigger ones. The kitchen is good but can get very busy so time yourself accordingly. My room had a nice view of the mountains too. This is also right across the street from the car park which was easy access and easy access to town. Is this an incredible hostel? No. Is it functional and basic? Yes. I had bad roommates one night and then good ones the other two. Roommates make a big difference. I would consider staying again.

The location is convenient, close to the town centre/bus station. No staff on the property at night to provide service/supervise. I stayed in the male only room of this hostel for three nights. For 2nd nights, one of the roommate brought in a girl and made a lot of noise… THIS IS NOT SOMETHING WHICH I WOULD EXPECT!

Great location and staff. Rooms were nice and had a nice bathroom. Just wished the wifi worked in the rooms, other than just in the communal spaces.

I stayed only 1 evening during a tour at Skye. The best part of the hostel is its location and scenic setting. You get to see an amazing view from the lounge. The rooms are okay, clean. The bathroom is clean and has hot water. The upper bed I got did not have a charging point so I had to stay down at times to charge my phone - a bit inconvenient but not too much. Free tea / coffee is available. I booked a breakfast which was reasonable. Overall recommended if you are on budget and staying for 1/2 days
