Location. Simple, but this hostel has everything you need. The staff were very friendly, but during the evening at times I was uncertain to whom were actually staff members. This creates uncertainty which leaves you thinking about your safety.

It was right on the Royal Mile, great location- just across from the Haggis tour office and down the street from the Edinburgh castle. It had a very friendly atmosphere, big couches, kitchen with a microwave, big tables, little fridges.
