It’s okay but probably not suitable for families because the bed on the top is too high might be a bit dangerous but it’s alright if u want to find a cheap and convenient place to stay.

因為旅行計劃有變,臨時定的青旅,要知道在愛丁堡能訂到這麼便宜的床位不容易。地方不難找,但是樓梯很小,搬行李比較困難。廁所浴室比較小,但可以用。有提供早餐,也可以自己煮東西吃。離車站很近,附近商店也很多,有麥當勞。
耳機落在那裡了,拜託客服聯繫酒店,最後順利寄到我們去的下一個城市。總之,非常感謝攜程的客服,青旅的回覆和服務也很好!

Nicely styled but too small for the amount of people squeezed in. Small kitchen/lounge space, small bathroom. Bedrooms I felt had too many beds. I didn't feel comfortable eating, relaxing and didn't sleep well, so wouldn't stay here again

We stayed in the 4 person with private bathroom room. Everything went well! Breakfast of toast, eggs and cereal was adequate! Definitely would stay again! Wonderful how close to Waverly Station! Easy to walk up the hilly street to the Royal Mile. Beautiful setting!
