The buffet breakfast was good and coffee was too .The last time i stayed the road outside was being converted for the tram lines-but now that the tram runs almost to the door from Waverley station and the airport it is excellent. The room was clean modern and a lot better than the hotel I stayed in for the rest of my holiday near Loch Lomond. I will be back but for a longer stay next time ##### Ann Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Christina Oct 12, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Booked a room for one night for a family of six. Great with option of one room. You have to ask for towels. Three bunk beds. Toilet and shower separately. The mattress especially in the lower beds where a bit wore down. Only a small chair and three chairs. Couldn’t sit in the bottom beds. ##### Christina Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Claire Jun 2, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Poor value for money Room smelled of sewage and thought stay was poor value for money ##### Claire Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tyler Oct 31, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It's a youth hostel, so expect some loud kids, but beyond that it was a pleasant first glimpse into Edinburgh.

Negativt var att tvål enbart fanns vid handfatet i hallen, mellan toaletten och duschen, och inte vid handfatet inne på toaletten och att bara enkelsängen och inte även dubbelsängen hade en sänglampa. Positivt var att det var rent och rymligt (vi hade ett eget rum för 3 personer), ett bagagerum vi kunde använda gratis både före inchecking och efter utcheckning, mycket trevlig och hjälpsam personal och gångavstånd till det mesta. Spårvagnen som går till och från flyplatsen har dessutom en hållplats nästan precis utanför entrén. ##### Emma Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ross Feb 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Staff were polite and very helpful. ##### Ross Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Adetola Oct 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Safe ##### Adetola Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### phil Oct 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### Basic but not really family friendly Window didnt close properly as a frame was in front of it. Very noisey other residents shouting about 3am doors banging. No WiFi in room ##### phil Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Wendy Aug 29, 2024 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Location was brilliant, 5 minute walk to central Edinburgh. Great transport links, buses and trams to get out and about at good value for money. Hostel was more than adequate for our needs with only one negative, being on a main road, it was noisy but not much can be done about that but will ask for room on other side next time i visit. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly, service was good. With regards to food, we choose full breakfast which include both options making it expensive and given the two choices a little unfair as i personally would not require the cheaper option when selecting the cooked breakfast option. Maybe you could look at offering two options with one price for the selected rather than charging both prices just because someone prefers a cooked breakfast. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would definately visit again and will also recommend to friends. ##### Wendy Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anja Aug 27, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nice Hotel. The Room was big enough. The Hotel Staff helped us. It´s only some meters to the City Center.
