No doubt one of the best hostels I've ever been. The staff are very friendly and helpfull. If you are hosteled in Royal Mile you have disconts to a pub near there where you can eat, drink and listnen music very well. They also give you disconts to make the pub crawl. They have towells very cheap,and adaptors, lockers, tea/hot chocolate/coffee for free. The only problem I had was with the heater that was broken in my room, but the girl told me they would repair it soon. I strongly recomend it!

This cute hostel was in an ideal location, central to all that is great in Edinburgh. It is a place where you get value for money. I loved it here and was very comfortable. It was clean and safe. However, there wasn't too much to do in the hostel itself. There was a small common room by the fireplace but it was very small. The kitchen is equipped with lots so you can cook dinner and the bathrooms were small but clean.

A lovely place, small but nice. If the kitchen can provide better breakfast, that would be great.

The hostel is really cosy and the staffs were extremely friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend it to anyone planning to visit Edinburgh. The location is very strategic, just a stone's throw away from city centre and the tourist attractions. You will love your stay there!

I've had a very good night. The breakfast is a bit poor, but at the price of 1,90 you probably shouldn't expext more, so even that's fine.

Stayed for 2 nights in female dorms. Great location, free unlimited super fast WiFi (winner!!!), free tea coffee and hot chocolate, own locker and key provided, also given key to room, friendly sassy staff, great atmosphere, close to everything and hot showers with high pressure. Downside place seems a bit dirty, shower curtains smell, can get a little noisy. Directions to hostel could be improved by using landmarks as well. Overall, I would stay here again for the WiFi and location.

Pretty solid hostel, quality facilities, very clean and well kept. Security is fine. Room are dull as hell and could really use some upgrades on the walls to go with the room themes.

everything was fine, me n my friend really enjoyed it apart from the fact that in one of the bedrooms, despite the fact that the window was shut, we could clearly hear people in the outside. other than that, everything was great.
