Great value inn, the cooked breakfast was terrific, the fellow who greeted us at breakfast each day was so nice, very welcoming.Dinner was also good value, the usual pub choices.Rooms were clean and everything you need.My only criticism would be that when we opened our window it was above where the smokers sit outside.

V large comfy bed within a spacious room. Even on main road traffic noise not noticeable. Room we were in was above the bar area but this didn't disturb us. Only downside was size of toilet with shower was on the tight side. Breakfast was excellent with plenty of variety.

I went into the public bar tonight for a drink and something to eat. My first impression of the barman was zero out of ten. Reason being was he made me feel very unwelcome, rhad zero personality, zero customer service skills, zero idea of how to treat customers. He was rude, had no manners and everything seemed like a hassle to him. I tried not to let this bother me but I then ended up telling him exactly what I thought of his extremely poor customer service and told him to cancel my food order and I then left. Shockingly bad experience, avoid this place!

This is a pub/budget Inn. I have to admit, on arrival I was put off by the poor cleanliness throughout the room and unpleasant smell. The level of dusts in parts was not good. …

First visited the albert inn and nairn 2008! Our second time here was even better!. Really comfortable bed. We nearly didn't eat dinner here, but so glad we did as the food is fantastic..and so reasonably priced ( partner had steak and it was amazing) the three couse meal price is worth more than they charge. Breakfast also cooked to perfection. Staff in bar were pleasant and friendly. Would definitely recommend.

Food was disgusting, haggis starter was dry and overcooked. There "curry " was so bland and tasteless. We left most of the curry on the plate but the server didn't even ask if everything was OK. Won't be back better curry in weatherspoons.
