The quad room is spacious and the shared bathroom is bright, but very small. There is a kitchen on the second floor where you can cook simple food. There is no elevator and we were exhausted carrying our suitcases to the sixth floor. I don't know if the front desk clerk is the boss, but he was very nice. We couldn't understand English, so he used the translation software on the computer to translate it and played it in Chinese for us. Very cost-effective!

We live on the third floor and have two rooms. There is no toilet in the room. The toilet is shared and the bathroom is independent! The B&B is very clean and the price is OK for Edinburgh!

The room is ok, but the soundproofing is poor. All rooms do not have private bathrooms and elevators, so you need to drag your heavy luggage upstairs. The location is very convenient, close to the train station and attractions. I was given a coupon for a small coffee shop next to the hotel, with a 15% discount. That coffee shop is also good, you can try it!

The room was clean, but there was no elevator and the stairs were a bit steep, so it would be hard to climb if you had a big suitcase.

The location is great! We live in a separate building, which is very quiet compared to the bustling scene of the hostel. The kitchen and bathroom are very clean, like newly renovated. Only 2 rooms use kitchen and bathroom. More like a B&B apartment. The main reason for choosing a youth hostel is that it has a kitchen so you can cook your own meals.

It's very close to the attractions and the overall experience is good. However, the charges for guest storage are not very reasonable.

Service: The people at the front desk are very nice, but the check-in time is 14:00 pm and the check-out time is 10:00 am, which is not convenient. Fortunately, you can store your bag for free before check-in, and you can also store it for free until 11:00 after check-out, but you will have to pay 3 pounds if you exceed the time (if you remember correctly) Facilities: It’s a bit like a family hotel, that is, the first floor (about three rooms) shares a toilet and shower room, which is fine if the requirements are not high Transportation: This is also the reason why I choose to live here. The transportation is very convenient. Get off the train and climb a long ladder to get there. The shopping festival is just outside the window. All kinds of attractions are very close. If you travel, I recommend staying here. It is very cost-effective up

The cleaning was very neat, the bedding was clean, and the room condition was excellent. The reception staff was also very friendly, so I felt very comfortable throughout my stay. Highly recommended.

The room is small and warm, in an old building with a strong sense of the times. like very much. There are no meals, but the kitchen utensils are all available ~ very good. Good location, very convenient!
