A decent hostel, I think for the price it was just as you would expect. Service in the reception/bar was great, I enjoyed my stay and I think the location was pretty good too. The beds are a bit flimsy, but overall I have no complaints. I would definitely recommend.

Really nice staff and very decent price in the midst of the edinburgh fringe festival. Convenientyl located, only a 30 minute walk from the pleasance dome area. My only issue was that the bedroom was unbearably hot (outside temp only reached highs of 24⁰ so I dread to think what it would be like if it were even hotter outside). Otherwise very clean and typical of hostel with (3-tiered) bunk beds. Despite the heat I did sleep well. They have decent facilities including a bar which seemed alright although I didn't personally make use of it. Free wifi too. Would recommend if you're travelling on a lower budget :)

I had a very terrible experience in this hostel. Check out on hotelscom at the time I booked was 11am but at about 10:30am I came out of the shower with a towel wrapped around my waist to meet 4 cleaners in my room, all my belongings had been moved out. I asked one of the cleaners about my items/what was happening and to my surprise they said checkout was 10am so they have moved all my items to the reception. I went downstairs to ask the receptionist about the situation and he said checkout was 10am so I should move out of the premises. NO APOLOGIES. It was so uncivilized, inhumane and an insensitive act to take against your guest who was at least in the shower.

Set in a beautiful area of Haymarket, clearly signed, outdoor benches upon arrival for relaxing, garden outside behind hostel for quiet moments, large rooms with lockers and en-suite facilities. In-house bar serving multiple refreshments, kitchen facilities in basement for self catering, lounge area with large bay windows to watch the world passing..

Was placed in a room with an entire group of young men who were under the understanding that they were the only ones staying in the room. They came in at 3 am turning the lights on and being loud and said that they booked out the whole room. Its pretty frustrationing that they wouls put a single in with a large group when there was clearly other bunks availabile in other rooms. Large groups should be booked on separately or have explained very explicitly that someone else will be bunking with them

The hostel is far too expensive for what it is. It is a perfectly decent simple hostel but this should be reflected in the price. I stayed in a much nicer hostel the week before for less than half the price.

Really enjoyed my stay, but would recommend the hostel to have curtains around the bed considering the lights in the bathroom are automatic and keep you awake at night. But for the rest, great hostel! 8/10
