I just stayed in a bed room at this hostel for a few nights and it was a really pleasant experience! The bed was clean and very comfortable and I had a good rest. The common area was also spacious and there were many opportunities to communicate and meet many interesting backpackers. What impressed me most was the owner, he was very friendly and enthusiastic, always smiling and helpful. Whenever I had questions, he patiently answered them and recommended good places nearby. Overall, it is definitely worth recommending and I will choose this place next time I visit the city!

I didn't expect that the 12-person room was also very safe ~ and there were blackout curtains. I will come again! It was a very good experience. The male and female roommates were very polite ~ the front desk was friendly, and the breakfast was a little expensive at 5 pounds but it was also good

The location is perfectly in the center of Old Town. The staff is also friendly. I asked to be assigned to a bed on the first floor from the beginning, but they gave me a bed on the second floor. I found an empty bed on the first floor and asked a male staff member to change it, but he did not change it. So I asked another female staff member the next day and they kindly changed it for me. The disappointing part is that the guests used the bathroom dirty, and the bathroom was like a portable toilet, so the water pressure was weak and the toilet and sink were often clogged. I am currently staying at the Original, not the Old Town, and it is much cleaner and the bathroom is nice.

It's located right next to the Scotarail station. It's very convenient.
Large luggage storage was 4 pounds for 6 hours and 6 pounds for 24 hours.
There is a building with a reception and a building with only guest rooms across the street.

Because of the storm, many trains were cancelled, so I came to Edinburgh in a roundabout way. The homestay I booked on Airbnb was too late and I was disturbing others with my suitcases, so I discussed with the landlord to cancel this night and find a temporary place to stay. I didn't have much hope when I arrived in the early morning, and the hotel I booked temporarily was all 1K, which was not worth it, so I decided to stay in the hostel for one night. But it was amazing, the girls' room was very quiet and not crowded, the hot water in the shower room outside was also very good, and the whole hostel was very clean~ I highly recommend it, and it is very cost-effective. The location is also very good. I was so sleepy when I arrived in the early morning, and it was only a 2-minute walk from the train station.
