It is in a really great location - only seconds away from the Royal Mile. The facilities were good, really nice hot and powerful showers - something quite unique for hostels I think! Also breakfast was delicious and not too expensive. However, the place doesn't have ANY character - it was really clinical and hotelesque (the upside of this being it is really clean!) Also I personally thought the staff were a bit grumpy - but maybe they were just having an off day. My one last complaint is that it was really noisy at night - I think it was partly the location of my room but I was constantly being woken up by people outside. Despite the downsides it was a very good hostel overall and great value!
