I spent a night there and would use it again. When I arrived after my visit, all information, door codes, etc. were sent by email. One code was in a separate email that I nearly missed. Despite the dormitory being small and basic, the kitchen was excellent with good equipment and space. The dining and sitting areas were also pleasant, as were the showers.

I strongly recommend this place for those looking for a place to stay or start walking and cycling. We also come here because it has a full menu and a brand new luxury kitchen. We also got all the facilities here.

If we are next in the area, we will definitely be back! Old generously allowed us to stay as part of our UK climate challenge, and the Smugglers hostel was the ideal location for us to catch up with neglected work, editing, and get some much-needed rest in their super comfortable beds! A lovely short walk away, the Tomintoul circular route, is also ideal for taking a midday break and refreshing! We are all thankful for having us old.

For our family of 5 dogs, we reserved a family room. It was tidy and tidy, with provided bedding. There was a good deal on the kitchen items. The only thing it's important to remember is to take your towels.

I love the place, they provide me with an opportunity to explore the area. We got a nice host. And then, we also got the location of this hotel, which is close to the Green Lake area. After that, they also have a nice village with a great atmosphere.

To pay £100 for a private room with private bathroom in a youth hostel, and for that, only receiving a quick email explaining that there will be probably no staff at arrival time (while Hotels.com mentions until 7pm) but that you can pass and visit thrz tourist center ..between 3 and 5pm !!! At the end, no code supplied for your private room. Other guests on site saying that they did not see any staff for the last 2 days except the cleaning person. Emergency numbers given online and onsite : 0 answer ! Hotels.com support : 0..just good enough to make your call lasting as long as possible. Finally found a dormitory open and slept in it but with not door code so were always afraid that the door could get closed . Terrible service from the hostel. Self checking needs a minimum experience...they have none. Hotels.com : thanks for the travel I don't know where thanks to your online support ..but not a better service than the hotel.

Schöne Küche, Zimmergröße ok (Familienzimmer). Aber: sehr dreckig. Auf dem Heizkörper im Zimmer war ein Fleck mit Erbrochenem (? Annahme), welches sich auch auf dem Teppichboden befand. Der Türcode für das Zimmer befindet sich gut sichtbar für alle im Flur an der Pinnwand. Somit haben wir uns nicht sicher gefühlt. Es war kein Personal vor Ort. Wir mussten telefonisch erst einmal die Zugänglichkeit zum Zimmer klären.
