Good location, short walk to restaurants and the river. Stayed in room 4, the pillows need to be replaced, almost flat. The breakfast is ample. You order breakfast the night before. It was OK.

We had the most wonderful overnight stay at Aye Stay! The staff were lovely, the room was perfection, the location was SO walkable and quiet, parking was easy, and the breakfast was delicious. Overall, this was an incredible value. Would book another trip to Inverness just to stay here again. 10+ stars, definitely worth booking if you're heading to Inverness!

Grossly overpriced! This place is a notch better than a hostel (and that’s being generous). For the price paid - this is not a value. Also, can’t comprehend how this has a rating of 9.8 (unless it’s on a scale of 100. Very disappointed with Expedia wrongly rating this as high as they do.

Charming, Cozy, and Convenient

Aye Stay was just a short walk from the city center. The rooms were beautifully updated without losing any charm. It was chock full of character highlighting the Highlands and Scottish character. They offer pre-ordered breakfast for guests in the morning, which was a perfect start to our day.
