Fine place to discover Orkney
Liked: I fell in love with Orkney. The hostel is well situated near the centre and also three supermarkets (Tesco, Lidl, Coop). Its strategic position offers a great starting point for sightseeing tours of the islands. It also offers parking places for people who come by car.
Disliked: I would appreciate offering guests some sports activities (table tennis, pool/snooker etc.), but not necessary :).

It served its purpose
Liked: Location good, easy to access
Disliked: Even though it was a self catering chalet, facilities next to non existent. No glass, cup etc. given that it was over £100, that’s not great. Elsewhere, I am in an immaculate new chalet with loads of facilities for £30 less

A great budget place to...
Liked: It is conveniently located with a path to the three major supermarkets. It is beside the Pickaquoy Centre and sports fields. It’s good value for money. It’s very clean although there were annoying handprints on the window!
Disliked: Nothing

Exceptional
Liked: Dont be put off by the Hostel title, this place is on par with a 3star hitel. The welcome and keyless door entry system were great. Building was ideally located. Inside was bright, warm and welcoming. The room I had was very well equipped. Comfortable bed and great night's sleep. Sorry I couldn't stay longer
