Beautiful located at a lake with view on the mountains. The consequence of that middle of nowhere is that the wifi from the location (almost) never works, so does your own connection (depending of your provider). Rooms are small, but okay. Sleeping rooms are nice heated, but if needed they provide additional bed sheets. The rest of the building is pretty cold so take a sweater. Great, kind people working. Big kitchen and common room with view on the lake and mountains. Really recommended to come to a good rest, and of course for a hike to the mountains. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marc Oct 1, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Stay Welcome stop from the rain ##### Marc Stayed 1 night in Sep 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Sep 18, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good clean accomodation option Great option to stay at during a west highland way trip.

Everything was clean, the bed was extremely comfortable. The food was good. The room was a little bit on the small side for 6 people with luggage but manageable. The only real problem was the women's showers which appeared to have some sort of drainage problem and left you standing ankle deep in dirty water. Hopefully this will be sorted soon! ##### rachel Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller May 30, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful setting, clean comfortable bunk beds. knowledge friendly staff. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in May 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Manni, Franken Aug 25, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### einzigartige Lage!! Wir hatten das Familienzimmer mit Doppelbett! Relativ lange An- und Abfahrt. Sehr ruhig. Der Blick aus dem Aufenthaltsraum ist herrlich. ##### Manni Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Alex, Berlin Jul 3, 2018 #### toll gelegene Unterkunft - typische Jugendherberge Wir suchten eine Unterkunft für eine Übernachtung am Ende der 2\. Etappe des West-Highland-Ways (WHW). Die Jugendherberge war im Rahmen Ihrer Möglichkeiten o.k. - erholsamen Schlaf findet man in einem Acht-Personen-Zimmer allerdings nicht. Dafür hübscher Bau mit toller Lage direkt am Loch Lomond und direkt am WHW. ##### Alex Stayed 1 night in Jun 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Nov 29, 2011 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Quiet retreat conveniently located for walkers Good quality room.
