"The location, the view and access to center Inverness was divine."
We loved the building. Helen was most accommodating with local information, history, recommendations for restaurants etc. She was very responsive when the need to contact her arose. She even left us a dozen roses! The apartment was well stocked.
On a constructive note, for the price we paid of approx $167 dollars per night the apartment is “tired”. The living room furniture needs updating. The sofa is most uncomfortable. The mattress needs replacing as well.
I would definitely stay again due to location but only at a negotiated price if no changes had been made. Thank you
Thank you for taking time to give feedback. We use the quieter winter months to sort out the apartment, and we will certainly take your comments into account when bringing things up to scratch.

"Excellent apartment in a great location."
Had all the facilities we needed for a week's stay. The fresh flowers, bread, milk etc were a great surprise. Communication and suggestions of things to do, places to go were very good.
Only minor issue was parking on a couple of occasions, mainly due to inconsiderate parking of apartment neighbours but exacerbated by nearby roadworks.
We will definitely hope this place is available when we next visit Inverness.
Thank you for taking time to provide feedback. I do agree with you that the location is excellent, and I'm pleased you had all the facilities you needed. I thoroughly enjoyed making suggestions in the guest information folder about things to do and places to go: when I am on holiday, I find that very useful. I am always happy to provide more specific informatin once I discover guests' particular interests. Sorry you had trouble with parking. The road works have now gone, and the traffic wardens are vigilant until 6.00, and so I hope this does not afferct too many others. It can be tricky in the evenings, since it is so close to the city centre. Kind regards Helen

"River View flat is wonderful."
The view of the river and the city is an added bonus to the great accommodations. Plenty of storage for clothing and food. The living/dining area was comfortable if we wanted to just spend the day lounging or to relax after our outing. The comfortable bed readied us for the next day of exploring the city right outside the door. I would highly recommend that you consider this flat for your trip to Inverness.
I'm very glad you enjoyed the flat so much, and thank you for such comprehensive nd appreciative feedback.

Hello Elaine,
I'm very happy to hear that you enjoyed the flat so much, and many thanks for publishing your feedback. It is lovely looking out of the window at the river, the bridge and the people passing.

"The flat was lovely."
Beautiful views close to all the city has to offer. The only issue we had was the noise from people on the street. The noise was men shouting and swearing at 3am in the morning which meant we were awake from then as this continued until just before 5am. We know when staying a city to expect some noise but this was excessive. We had to have the windows open as it was very warm aswell. We loved the flat and would consider coming back. We loved how close to the city and tourist attractions. The walk along the river was beautiful
Hi James,
I'm so sorry you were disturbed by noise, and indeed it does sound excessive. Anyone reading this should know that it is absolutely fine to phone the police and make a complaint. Being a city centre flat, a bit of noise at the weekend is normal, but those shouting and swearing at 3.00 are comitting a public nuisance.
Thank you for your otherwise kind words about the flat. It is a lovely setting, and I agree that going up the river to the islands is one of my favourite walks.
Kind regards,
Helen

This was our second visit to River View. We love the location- easy to walk into town, around the river and canal or just sit and look out of the window and people watch. Flat has everything you need, good quality bedding and towels and enough kitchen equipment to cook (although lots of tempting restaurants nearby). Has a really comprehensive visitor guide which inspired us to visit Glen Affric and to go at the right time to see loads of dolphins at Chanonry Point.
Hello Karen,

"We had a memorable week at River View, the description is accurate (the stairs could be a slight problem for someone with limited mobility), location is ideal for Inverness, Cairngorms, Fort George and of course, Loch Ness itself."
Although we didn’t actually meet the owners, we always felt they were available if we needed them. If we returned to stay in Inverness River View would be our first preference (this is probably the best recommendation we could give it!!), minor note to owner, a hook for clothes in the bathroom would have been nice, but in no way affected our stay. The local advice from Helen at the time of booking and just before we arrived was very helpful in pointing us in the right direction for things to see and places to eat. The whole experience from start to finish exceeded our expectations.
Hello Kevin,
Thank you for your feedback. The idea of a hook in the bathroom is a good one.
I’m so glad you found the information I gave you was useful. I do try to imagine what will make your visit run really smoothly.
