Everything but 1 thing

The vending machine only lets you purchase one thing at once, if you do more than 1 then it only charges you for the first item you selected and you have to do it again to get the second item

Posizione perfetta a due passi da Royal Mile, abbiamo prenotato una famigliare con due letti e due a castello. Senza ben pulita con tutto l’essenziale. Sembrava piuttosto nuovo anche il bagno con una bella doccia comoda. Il phone o cuscini extra si possono chiedere in prestito alla reception.

Come immaginavano il sabato notte c’è stata parecchia confusione fino a tardi, avendo la stanza al secondo piano si sentiva tutto il rumore e schiamazzi degli avventori del pub. Ma già la seconda notte era tutto più tranquillo. Materassi non proprio comodi.

Localização muito boa

A good value establishment conveniently situated near the Royal Mile. Bar meal was very tasty.

A bit noisy in the evenings (but does quieten down at a reasonable time).

The location was ideal for attending gigs at Bannermans. It also had a cash machine on site which was handy for grabbing some money before I set off on my next trip. There's a handy wee button at reception for booking taxis which arrived quite promptly. The staff on reception were lovely and informative. Any time I messaged the hostel leading up to my stay, they got back to me in good time and provided me with all the information I requested. The shower in the room had a good water pressure and I had a nice wee table and stools in there too.

First off, no TV in my room. I'm aware that it's a hostel but any others that I've stayed in previously have had one. The shower which as previously mentioned did have good pressure, was like some kind of water torture, going from tepid to freezing all the time. The window although tiny, need an upgrade, expected noise outside on a Saturday night but it sounded as if it was in my room beside me. Upon leaving the amount of people congregating in the foyer when trying to use the cash machine was intimidating. The bed was really uncomfortable and the room was cold. There was also no socket next to the mirror. Finally, the price for one night (£151) was absolutely ludicrous.

L’emplacement était idyllique car au milieu de la vieille ville et surtout à proximité de toutes les commodités. Tous peut se faire à pied.

Il n’y a rien à redire sur l’établissement.

Good location

Very small family room, tired decor and very squeaky beds

Location

Very basic

Unkompliziert und zentral gelegen. Unerwartet vielseitiges Frühstück.

Die Matratzen waren sehr hart. Wir vermissten einen Fön.

Die Lage war wirklich gut. Im Großen und Ganzen würd ich sagen ok fürden Preis.

Die Betten waren extrem durchgelegen und extrem laut da es ein Metallgestell war. Am 1. Tag ging die Kaffeemaschine nicht, Antwort des Personals war nur "wissen wir", die Auswahl beim Frühstück war generell nicht sehr groß. Pancake Automat war dort aber keine Anleitung wie er funktioniert und auch kein Personal auffindbar um zu fragen. Ein Pub ist direkt integriert, was einerseits Recht angenehm ist weil man nicht weit für ein Bier muss andererseits nachts extrem laut. Es macht fast keinen Unterschied ob die Fenster offen oder zu sind.

Very good location and friendly staff, especially at reception :) Everything was extremely clean! Good breakfast. Noise wasn't as bad as expected, the hostel is in Edinburgh centre so obviously there was some noise from the streets, but inside it was very quiet :)

No light above the mirror, which was located in a small corner, so it was really dark, not really the point of a mirror! The coffee machine at breakfast wasn't working the first morning, but it was fixed the next day.

Nice and close to the centre of Edinburgh, clean and basic. Comfortable bed, clean bathroom. Nice and quiet!

My key card didn't work, but my friends did so it was ok! The only thing that I would have preferred is being able to open the window more, but that's just a personal thing!

Just the location

It was not clean, bathroom was horrible. The bed was making a lot of noise

Vibe, facilities, Staff, environment. Luggage keeping facilities, locker for luggage, big sitting areas. Indoor stand up comedy rooms. I loved it so much here.

Everything was perfect

I’m female and was put in a room with two males.

Very close to Royal Mile. Reception is always open.

Noise from the bar downstairs was loud and kept going till 2am. Room is very small for 4ppl but good for a very short stay. Linen and towels not provided for (though it was mentioned in the terms and conditions).

Close to old town

Noisy, broken curtain with light streaming in

Centrality

Very small room with average bed.

Pretty central and close to more or less all the main attractions of the city. Rooms had free lockers under the beds to store luggage, guests just had to bring their own locks 🔒.

The room I stayed in had two windows facing the street and it was pretty noisy at night, especially after the pubs were closed.

The location was incredible. In the old town and very close to touristic places

Super dirty and the staff, even though was very friendly, didn’t assist us. The light of our bathroom didn’t work and they didn’t fix it

Location

Bed, bedding, no towels

location is average room was interesting guests good I see why this is the second lowest price in Edinburgh on Booking now at the moment...

Crowded rooms of people who don't wash themselves, cards don't work right for no one on the terrace. Staff is really young, inexperienced and unprofessional. I bought souvenirs from their reception, about double the amount for staying there and they still didn't show any respect. I had a business meeting until late hours and couldn't check in after 00:00, so I had to wait until 15 o'clock without sleep. It was heavy raining and I couldn't move easily from there. So I was drinking coffee near reception minding my own things on my laptop and the receptionist tries to kick me out. I talked to the manager straight away, and he helped me to stay as he explained his staff this isn't the way to treat guests. So, as I was waiting until morning to check in, I got in a room of my friend Diego just to put away my suitcases, because they have a locker that seems really unreliable and I carried some valuable items. I was getting ready for the day, when two young girl came in to my room to kick me out of the hotel. As I was leaving they refunded me my 22£ in cash to my hands ! Can you believe this? One more thing, I bought a coupon for a breakfast worth 7.5£, but couldn't use it as they said they cannot know if I have used it already and didn't drop the coupon in the box compartment. WHAAAAAT ??? Am getting mad as I am writing this because it isn't over. I came to another hotel which I liked and decided to go on a Pub Crawl with my friends. So I payed for it 19.90£ to visit 7 bars in one night. Guess what, first station was a fifty bar, which is actually connected with the hotel as they are next to each other and work together. So, they say to me, you need to go and we will refund you... I sincerely don't recommend this place to anyone.
