Very good

One of the emails I received had an incorrect code number. I could not enter the property. However Amber helped set things right.

It was a wet week when I stayed there. It was impossible for me to dry anything.

Exactly what I needed

No elevator but it did have somewhere to leave your suitcase

I did like staying here . But I found it very hard to get up and down from top bunk bed. It would have been good if we could select before finding that you are located top bunker. Other than that, I enjoyed my stay.

The hostels walls easily accessible by train and tram. Centrally located for all Edinburg attractions. Place was clean and everyone was respectful Only issue was pretty noisy at night due to being located right over a bar.

Very clean and welcoming. Surprisingly quiet given there are a number of bars and restaurants in the vicinity. Good location with large retail shops near by and a short walk to the royal mile for tours and the castle. Will definitely visit again.

First hostel stay for me and everything was so easy, great app for keyless/cordless entry, pod was a great size for me (5ft 4”) with conveniently placed usb charging point. Very clean and well stocked bathroom and kitchen. Some noise from pub delivery/bottles being put out but not enough to bother me at all, very convenient location for airport link bus stops and all attractions. Thank you so much will recommend to everyone I know and would definitely stay here again!

Clean comfortable

When arrived in my room late in the evening after a long and happy day in edinburgh visiting a relative, I was confronted with an unmade, apparently already slept in pod. This was most distressing and annoying. With no reception to complain about this, I decided to sleep in the adjacent, unslept in pod. However, then in the morning I awoke to find my locker had been locked out during the night and I could not access my clothes and belongings! All of this hassle and stress meant I didn't get a win of sleep. On the plus side, when I called the helpline via Whatsapp, the problems with my locker were fixed quite quickly by the support worker, who was also very patient, polite and kind. So it's hard to give an unbiased report on my stay due to those issues - might be ok for someone else. In conclusion, this hostel will not be my first choice for somewhere to stay when I'm next in Edinburgh.

Enjoyable, will stay again, next time I.ll stay at another code in the city.

At first I was confused about entry, 5 minutes later - no longer confused……. Travellers, please check your email for a code, I didn’t and that’s why I was confused. My stay so far is great, the hostel is small but very cozy and compact, love the co-living space, hostel is placed at the back of rose street, beside all the shops, restaurants but still has quieter and relaxed feel, the hostel staff are very helpful, friendly and keep the place looking amazing, just wash up after yourself travellers and we will all get along just fine x toiletries, hairdryers etc are there to be used not abused, so respect what’s been provided and have a great stay.

The hostel itself is really good! The pods, bathrooms and common areas are well kept and comfortable. The only downside, is the location. While it is right in the middle of new town, it is down an alley way and the sound of rubbish being emptied in the morning is extremely loud - usually glass bottles. If you wake up early than 8:30ish, it’s fine.

NOTE: This review is ONLY for the penthouse room. The room was incredible! Spacious, comfy but modern, with a fully equipped kitchen and a huge bathroom. There was also a very nice private open terrace that I didn’t get to use much because of the weather. I stayed for a couple of nights and I have to say it was well worth the value of getting my own private space, enjoying the views, cooking some meals and getting some work done. There’s little staff on site but the few times I came across them they were all super polite and friendly. I can’t speak of the shared dorms and other rooms but my experience was great and I would definitely come back.

It was a Good Stay Pods. Carry your USB Type A Chargers as they Don't Have Type C or Plugs Near To Beds Or Pods. Apart from that kitchens and Utensils Were Clean. BED WAS CLEAN.Pleasant experience in terms of stays.

Just so-so. The toilet is not very good. And the lock table in the room is in bad cleaning condition. The rest is good.

Great place. V central - close to bars at night, and also to the airport bus link in the morning. Fantastic price (I got it for £20) too!! They have loads of things I didnt know about/ get to try cos I was literally there for 4 hours as a stop off for a few hours sleep before going on holiday - i will definitely make more use of the facilities next time!!

Good experience, nice flat.

Pleasant cleanliness that I was surprised by. Was expecting something shabbier but a it was really well maintained and kept clean. Maybe only the shower room rug was abit of a put off but otherwise everything else was nice and clean.

I can highly recommend this accommodation. There had been a mistake with my room and my key number first. However, I was lucky that the cleaning lady could help me. She called the receptionist and they helped me right away by giving me the correct room number with the correct key number. The lady on the phone was very polite and apologized for the confusion that had occurred. The place is immaculate and it seems to be freshly renovated. The atmosphere is great and comfortable. If I revisit Edinburgh, I will definitely book this accommodation again.

The location is fantastic - an easy walk to the castle and the Royal Mile, plus surrounded by restaurants, shops, and an easy walk to a Tesco Express and a Sainsbury Local for your basic grocery and other needs. And - most importantly - it was a clean and cozy place to stay, not too busy but with friendly travelers, and with comfortable sleeping pods that didn't feel claustrophobic. The pods had a useful storage shelf, a hook, and 2 USB charging outlets. And, I can't emphasize this enough: Everything felt clean. Would definitely stay here again.

I like the location. Was clean and safe, but for me was a different experience. I have never slept in a pod or cubicle. I couldn't bear it. For me was claustrophobic. I didn't know and i didn't get enough info before i booked. Obviously age plays a part and I will recommend this place to teenagers or younger people that are in for this experience I suggest to be more specific with the listing so people like me know in advance what are they getting into

I thought There are ppl upstairs drinking in the room and kept dropping the glass bottle on the floor and laughing loudly which woke me up a few times in the midnight. Toilet design is strange that the door couldn’t be fully opened, only someone who is really slim is possible to go into the toilet. Sent Whtsapp message for assistance which shall be 24/7, but I got the reply 9hrs later. Pillow went flat already which made the sleep totally uncomfortable

BEST HOTEL in Edinburgh I ENJOYED the bed and how I had plenty of space 100%. I would give it 10 out of 10

We stayed in the penthouse studio Fantastic room nice and big with everything you need

This is my first experience at a hostel. It was great. I was comfortable and felt safe. Staff is hardworking and helpful. The only thing is the bar next door. You will hear beer bottles being thrown out a few times a day. They do give earplugs so it helps to block some of the noise.

Really good place to stay. Can get quite loud with the pubs downstairs, but I’d definitely stay again.

Teeny older building in the heart of New Town, one block from Princes Street. Great location for food and shopping, with easy access to Waverly train station. It is hidden in an alleyway, so if you get lost finding it, look for The Standing Order, as the entry way is right next door. This entire experience is like Airbnb meets hostel. You’ll receive an email to “complete registration”, shortly thereafter you’ll receive codes for the door and your assigned room. The door is heavy! Well all of them are, really. The ground floor has a kitchen/lounge. With a lot of seating, storage for food, etc… I was on the first floor, in a girls only room. The rooms are teeny, in my room there were 6 pods. Which for privacy works great. The lockers are very slim, not large enough to put in a backpack or suitcase. But you can store valuables, just have to unpack them from larger bags. The rooms are chilly! My stay was at the end of April and the room was quite cold. The bathroom has 2 showers and one toilet. The showers in the space are nice, with two rooms, one for changing and one for the shower, the design means things stay dry that need to. The bathroom stall is large, but the door opens in, so it can be challenging to get in and out. Please post a sign asking people to refill the toilet paper. I was there just two nights and at least 3 times I went to the toilet and the paper was empty. Also suggest a bin with a hands free lid.

Nice hostel in a very good location. You can do everything walking. I recommend the place

Lovely room, large & bright with small balcony. Clean. Towels were included but the email said they weren’t. I liked the bed but partner thought it was an uncomfortable. Amazing for the money, would definitely stay again. The only downside was that the area was a little noisy & the glass didn’t keep it out, especially the glass collection from the pub downstairs, and some kind of generator or boiler I could hear throughout, but not too loud.

It was really lovely hostel with storage space and a good sized bed.
