Liked: La ubicación del hostel es excelente, el ambiente muy bueno y tranquilo. La habitación un poco pequeña para tres o cuatro personas, pero por lo demás, una buena elección. Ofrecen un montón de servicios: información sobre excursiones, destinos, atracciones turísticas, máquinas de venta de refrescos y snacks, ordenadores, wifi, lockers para dejar cargando los teléfonos móviles, una habitación exclusiva para dejar las maletas una vez se hace el check out, un bar-restaurante con precios muy razonables y bastante variedad, cocina para hacerse su propia comida,etc.
Disliked: El tamaño de la habitación.

Liked: Our room was very clean, the bathroom and the whole Hostel as well. All staff were absolutely friendly and helpful. My boyfriend and me love the food, the breakfast and the food in the afternoon was amazing. We would recommend the hostel to all our friends. And when we will come back to Edinburgh, we will book a room at the Smart City Hostel. Thank you very much!!!!

Liked: Friendly and helpful staff, ensuite dorm room, quite clean compared to other hostels. Laundry facilities were fine, felt safe and generally well-maintained. Excellent central location, close to everything.
Disliked: Bed was not comfortable and only had a very thin pillow to sleep on, but it's to be expected at a hostel. At lot of noise from the street at night. WiFi not free. Overpriced for a hostel.
