A Good Hotel

We chose this hotel as one of the few in Inverness that has free parking. It was a good choice as the location was convenient for road access and close to a mall with restaurants and a Tesco location. The room was comfortable. The breakfast was plentiful and the staff members were friendly and efficient.

Gave away our room

I booked a room with 2 twin beds. The hotel gave my room away and tried to give me a room with one double bed. I was traveling with my sister and that was unacceptable. The hotel had no other rooms with twin beds left and would not give us a refund even though we decided not to stay there.
