15 June 2009 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Nice & clean place, much emphasis put on keeping the place rather quiet.If you want a tidy, relaxed hostel for a nice stay with your girl/boyfriend you're in the right place. The party places are somewhere else.

07 June 2009 daniel would recommend this property

Liked: building was very nice but very noisy because of the age of the wooden floors, you can hear everybody as soon as they put a step on the floor. the bed was very noisy too.check out at 10:30 is far too early. if you don't have enough time to clean the rooms between 12 and 2 then hire more staff, or organize it better. I know these check in/out times are becoming more popular, but as a customer it is a pain.

20 April 2009 Ping would recommend this property

Liked: Stayed for a weekend visit in Edinburgh. A lovely little hostel at the south end of the Meadows. Off street parking in the area is available (with some luck/persistence) and are free of parking meter fees from 5.30 pm on Friday till Monday morning. The staff were very helpful and informative, the rooms and bath/toilet areas were very clean, and the kitchen facilities were superb. A very quiet and friendly hostel providing great value for money within a 10-15 minute walk of most of the city centre attractions.

19 April 2009 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: It was a good place to stay - though small details stopped it being outstanding- tv in room didn't work, nor rthe one in the kitchen/ sitting room. There was no bath plug - the skylight into the bathroom would not close - chilly. Small details perhaps , but took a bit of the edge off .

18 April 2009 Amy would recommend this property

Liked: We booked a double room and had a lovely attic room on the top floor. In the room was a big double bed, bedside tables, a wardrobe, a chair and even a TV. Sharing bathrooms was not a problem as there were only two other rooms on our floor, and had a powerful shower and was totally clean everywhere. We didn't really make the most of the other facilities on offer, outside seating area, downstairs kitchen and communal living room, but it was a lovely cosey homely place that I'd recommend to anyone, whether you're a backpacker or not.

18 April 2009 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Decent but far from outstanding. Showers weren't working properly during our stay and the whole place is a little bit run-down although staff seems to be doing its best to keep it clean and friendly. Probably ok if your are used to youth hostels and are looking for a cheap stay in Edinburgh.
