    The kitchen and common spaces were amazing and well organized. It’s the perfect place to go for a stay in Orkney.

    This is a hostel so you pick up your key from a box at the front door and probably won't see any host. But it is beautifully kept, with nicely appointed rooms, basic style but nice and the icing on the cake is the fabulously equipped kitchen,...

    I booked a private room for 1 and it was quite large with 4 bunks. The location was very close to Tesco and the hostel had a full kitchen. It was nice to be able to have my evening meal at 'home' after a long day of sightseeing.
