Nurhayati Abdul Rahman

04 January 2010 Nurhayati would recommend this property

Liked: The best thing about the High Street Hostel, I think, is the location. It's conveniently located on the Royal Mile, an easy walk away from all the sights. There's a kitchen in the basement which is convenient, but gets noisy at night. Hot showers were good and the place was very clean. Great value for money! :)
