Zusammenfassung der Bewertungen anderer Reisender

Das Safestay Edinburgh Cowgate besticht durch seine fantastische zentrale Lage, perfekt für Erkundungstouren. Gäste loben oft das freundliche und hilfsbereite Personal. Beachten Sie jedoch, dass sich die Unterkunft neben einer lebhaften Bar befindet, was besonders am Wochenende zu erheblichen Lärmbelästigungen führen kann. Einige neuere Bewertungen erwähnen Probleme mit der Sauberkeit der Badezimmer und dem Fehlen von Annehmlichkeiten wie einer Küche.

It was extreamly loud until 1:30 am. No self Catering kitchen. Bad cleaning, dirty sheets. Not worth the Money.

VERY NICE BATHROOM , Room was nice too, I could charge my phone next to my bed even my iphone, usually they only have for samsung. I was in the men only bedroom and It fellt like we had our private bathroom and shower at the hall, no other people. The reception was nice, I could chill at the hostel order some uber eats for the world cup game once. Best location ever. They don’t have social events but they had a good pub crawl offer from other hostel close and it was GREAT. BREAKFAST AWESOME
