It was very easy. We were just there to sleep and shower, and that's exactly what we did. Even though there was no bathroom (three showers, two toilets) for more than 20 people on a floor, I didn't feel like I had to fight with anyone for the shower in the morning or at night, so that's good. The people were mostly kids, American kids, they were okay to talk to.

Its location, value for money and staff. But the bed and wash room facilities can be better.

It was a bit of a walk to the Royal Mile, but totally manageable. The bathroom facilities also weren't great but still manageable. Overall, though, the place was mostly clean and safe.

Very close to Haymarket-ideal if you need a place to crash before an early flight (the bus is just outside). Fairly clean, very secure.

Breakfast ok for £1. Should be offered from 8am but when we arrived, the door was still closed and we had to bang on the door after a bit to wake them up and have breakfast!! Also, had booked 3 beds but had to put a mattress on the floor as someone had not cleared his bed and the staff was unable to say who should not be there...

It was within 20 minutes walking distance to everything. Wish there were things posted for people to do in the hostel, or when you checked in they gave you ideas.
