Its a big hostel. The room was nice but lack of storage space. The kitchen and lounge were spacious but pretty crowed all the time. If you prefer quiet place, probably here is not for you. But overall here is nice and reasonable price.

The staff was really great and the location was really good. But the room was hot and smelled sweat. It also felt very old and outdated. The facilities needs to be cleaned.

Wonderful location! Fun and quirky. My only issue was the showers. They need better drainage and/or a place to put clothes - especially if the shower rooms are mixed sex

I booked a private room. It was very small and bed was hard pillows too. It was noisy but doable. The shared bathroom is coed with two showers and three sinks. No amenities and for the price I paid I would not recommend.

The staff were really friendly and helpful, even when we arrived late at night, and the quirky decor was great fun. We wished we had more time to spend to enjoy the squashy sofas, tv, books- even guitars and pianos to use, but were too busy seeing Edinburgh. The simple breakfast on offer for £1.90 was excellent value. There was a good mixture of ages and nationalities staying when we did. The only people I wouldnt recommend this hostel to would be those who cant manage a lot of stairs.

Great location and the facilities are clean & spacious. Decor is not as modern or hip as other places but I prefer it’s laid back charm. Guests kept to themselves a bit, but that may be just when I happened to be there.

I can’t believe that in all my 44 years I’ve never stayed in a hostel. Thought I’d take the plunge because fed up of sitting on my own in a hotel room, sitting in my own in a restaurant eating food I didn’t really want, and hugging a pint on my own in a bar. 2 nights at the High Street Hotel in Edinburgh has changed my idea of business trips to the city forever! Eat what I want, when I want, sit and chat with friendly people of all ages from all over, or just quietly on my own I wanted. Film night, WiFi, no faff, no fuss, no pretences. Comfy bed, though beware if your a bit older or less agile as upper bunks take a bit of leg strength and control to do with finesse! I went in mixed room as doesn’t bother me, but could do single-sex if wanted.Now I’m left asking...why did I never think of it before?

Good location. The check-in is smooth, the front desk is helpful. The room is packed as expected. However the shared toilet and bathroom is a little bit messy as it serves many residents with limited bath cubicles.

The SYHA was full so this was the only alternative at a reasonable price
