I was impressed on how often the toilet and the showers are cleaned.

Absolutely horrible. Do NOT recommend! The rooms are small and stifling, so if you're staying in a dorm get ready to be glued to everyone else in the room. Also the windows don’t open, if the room smells… well, deal with it. The lockers are the size of a grain of rice, be ready to leave your luggage in the middle of

Hola, siento que el hostal tiene ciertos aspectos buenos como el desayuno y las instalaciones del comedor que me parecieron adecuados, pero lo que no me gustó fue que el cuarto se siente muy pequeño, además los casilleros de los cuartos eran muy pequeños que incluso solo llevaba una mochila escolar normal e incluso ni

'Thank you for staying with us and your valuable feedback.
We are glad that you liked the the breakfast and common areas.
The lockers are meant for valuables and are of similar size like in other hostels.
We are very sorry that the lift was out of order during your stay. It is maintained regularly and was serviced a few days before your arrival. The engineer noticed that a part needs to be replaced and the lift had to be taken out of order until the part arrived and the engineer could replace it. It was unfortunate, but certainly not due to negligence from our side.
The showers and toilets are cleaned multiple times a day. Unfortunately it seems to be more and more common not to clean after oneself. We are unfortunately not able to clean the bathrooms after every single guest. However, we do have QR codes for every bathroom and additional cleaning can be requested at any time.
It's good to hear that the reception team was helpful.
We hope you enjoyed to explore Edinburgh and wish you all the best!
Kind regards,
Marcus

The beds were alright, plus for the curtains, but was really disappointed that there was no kitchen. Never seen a hostel without it, common rooms were also quite lonely :/

Well, it was an eventful stay. It included a very, very large "hiccup." What I will say, and I mean this from the bottom of my grandfather-born-in-Coatbridge heart: staff handled the situation with such grace, such professionalism, such empathy. I call out, in particular, Sully and Elenea. You two are such an asset to

My stay was excellent. The hostel is in a great location, and the female dorm was quiet and felt very safe. The bathrooms were very clean, breakfast at the bar next door was really good, and the staff at reception were polite and helpful. Overall, I was very satisfied and would definitely recommend this place — even
