really suited us and very handy to everything. the only draw back was that the hostel was uncomfortably hot. it was the general consensus from most people on our floor.really suited us and very handy to everything. the only draw back was that the hostel was uncomfortably hot. it was the general consensus from most people on our floor....Close

Excelent situation but very poor character, insufficient bathrooms, very small showers and cramped rooms. It\'s a flat converted in a hostel. Poor cleanliness in general. Anyway an adequate place to stay if you look for something simple.Excelent situation but very poor character, insufficient bathrooms, very small showers and cramped rooms.

Other than good location, the hostel failed in quite a few areas. There were insufficient utensils in the kitchen and those available looked dirty. Cups were chipped. The room had bad ventilation (having a very sick person who shared the room coughing throughout the night made the problem worst), the sheets had someone else's hair on it, there were no clean linens. The a few of the shower cubicles could not be locked. The hooks at the back of the door couldn't be used.Other than good location, the hostel failed in quite a few areas.

Staff were friendly, kitchens and rooms really clean and large enough for all. Not many toilets/showers at all but only had to wait once so wasn't really a problem. Would recommend the 6bed dorms over the 16bed ones. Would definately stay again.Staff were friendly, kitchens and rooms really clean and large enough for all.

Great location! We had no problems getting from the airport to the hostel. Arriving at 12.00am we were greeted by friendly helpfull staff.
Our room was 16bed mixed dorm.
Clean room, clean comfortable beds, clean bathroom, showers were good albeit sometimes lacking water pressure!! and the kitchen was well equipped too.
Located on the Royal Mile, everything is only 10 minutes away!!
I will definately return :)Great location! We had no problems getting from the airport to the hostel. Arriving at 12.00am we were greeted by friendly helpfull staff.
