I had a great experience saying at this hostel. Although it is a little out of the main way, it was ana amzing value for the money. The staff is very helpful and the hostel is top of the line; although the beds are squeaky, they are very comfortable. For future tenets, check out the Italian restaurant Gali's around the corner for a great mela at a great price, and Italian servers that will keep you laughing.

i liked the atmosphere of everybody there the way everyone was friendly there, though i was abit dissapointed in that the fact that the shared rooms didnt have plugs so it made it harder to charge my phone, which meant i had to sit with my phone out in the hall for an hour so that it would be fully charged.... apart from that i was happy with the staff as they were very helpful and happy. It was lovely there and am thinking of staying again next year or when i am ever in edinburgh again plus the rooms were cheap so it was good i am recommending it to all my friends who travel to edinburgh alot and need cheap places to stay. so four stars out five i would say

The whole place is surprisingly new! The room for 8 persons I stayed in have very new shower facilties. Very nice and the beds are clean. The carpets are new too! I am very pleased as it was quite cheap. But it has lousy breakfast and location wise, one has to walk quite far towards City centre and basically it is a residential area so nothing much to do around the place. Overall still value for money.
