Hostelworld zegt

Reizigers van Hostelworld beoordelen Royal Mile Backpackers zeer hoog vanwege de locatie en het is geen wonder waarom: het ligt in het centrum van Edinburgh, aan het voetgangersgedeelte van de Royal Mile, dicht bij het kasteel en het treinstation Waverly. Gasten hebben ons verteld dat het "leuk en gezellig en karaktervol is... dit hostel zorgt ervoor dat je je echt thuis voelt". We vinden het leuk dat het relaxte, vriendelijke en behulpzame personeel een aantal doordachte extra's biedt, zoals planken in de douches, haken om kleding aan op te hangen en stopcontacten bij elk bed.
