I had a great time at Castle Rock. A perfect location and lots of great people to talk to. I loved the view from the dorm!

Best hostel I staid in on my trip, perfect location and a really nice layout. I met some friends staying in other Hostels around Edinburgh and they where really jealous when we swung by Castle Rock to have a beer.

This hostel is simply awesome! A unique location, amazing staff, enormous lounge rooms, and a kitchen well supplied with everything you need! I was just a little disappointed with the bathrooms that are not en suite but overall this has been one of the best hostels that I've ever been!

Some areas smelled badly, but everything was in good shape. Only one bathroom to a whole floor, which is kept relatively clean, but on Halloween night there were people vomiting and leaving things all over the floor.
