“My first hostel - friendly, fun, warm, clean, nice vibe”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 December 2011

Okay - so I don't have a great deal to compare this hostel to but I am a middle-aged mum, not a great traveller, and this was my first hostel experience when visiting Skye with my teenaged daughter. I'd read some horror stories about hostels but our room at Saucy Marys was clean with comfy beds, a lovely view, clean bathroom (a big plus) with a hot, strong shower. The rooms are above a bar and this provided a great atmosphere: hot, filling basic meals, and a very reasonably-priced bar! The bar was busy but not overwhelmingly so with young people from around the world staying in, including a shy young American techno-geek travelling alone, a noisy group of Australians (apparently mandatory at all European hostels), our tour group of mother-and-daughter+married couple from India+Canadian techno geek, as well as a handful of locals. It was loud, friendly and good-natured. We had a quiet night's sleep and enjoyed the breakfast of cereal, yoghurt, tea & toast. NB Australians: they have VEGEMITE!

Room Tip: Front room on first floor (the one with the dormer window) was a little noisy - being two doors from...

“Brilliant accommodation and great craic!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 October 2011

The accommodation was right next door to the hotel. our accommodation was large, modern and very clean. the bathroom was quite a treat. The younger members of our party felt like having some fun, so as it was a Friday night, went to the inn next door. The fun and craic there was great, the locals and staff extremely entertaining. We so totally enjoyed it. We also enjoyed our breakfast however it took quite a long time to arrive, which was a little bit of a problem as we were restricted for time. Overall a great place to stay, and launch from to the wonderful beauty of Skye

Room Tip: if you have time restrictions, like being on a tour as we were, get to breakfast early

“Comfortable and lively”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 October 2011

We enjoyed our stay here, we had a triple room (a bunk and a single bed). The bunk bed was a bit rickety so I'm glad no-one was staying on top! The room was quiet despite the lively bar downstairs. The bar was good fun for a bit of food and a couple of drinks, although 2 double whiskeys did cost £15!!!

Room Tip: Ask for a room on the top floor as they aren't noisy from the bar downstairs.

“Great Hostel!!!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 July 2011

This hostel is sort of like a hostel crossed with a motel. We had a private room that had a double bed, a bunk bed and a sink with a view of the water. It was clean and simple. The showers were small, but the wifi worked decently. There is a bar attached, but there was no noise from it despite the fact that there was quite a crowd. You can walk to the ruins of the castle, and we also saw an otter in the water. I really enjoyed my stay here! My only complaint is that the walls between rooms are paper thin... however, it wasn't a noisy stay at all.
