Clean everywhere, good staff.

5.0 / 10.0

Stayed in the cubicle rooms...16 people is too many for my personal taste, but the from was big.... However the cube can get stuffy at night... More than ample amounts of toilets and showers always clean and stocked...overall a worthwhile stay in an excellent area.... There is a market just up the street which is helpful for cooking meals in their kitchen...

4.0 / 10.0

Great location with easy access to all the major old town attractions. Only gripe is the stairs-only leading to the rooms so if you're on the higher floors, good exercise.

Stayed in a Pod dorm and everything was fine. Clean, enough space, breakfast was ok. Stayed there before and would recommend it. Nice area in Old Town

8.0 / 10.0

Very nice hostel overall. Needs improvement: need elevator for at least luggage, needs to fix bathrooms, need to have a way to dry bathrooms quickly, really fun area but a little too noisy outside and a lot too much rubbish outside in city area—-not fault of hostel

5.0 / 10.0

This location is amazing. We had a private room with our own toilet and shower but had to rent towels and pay for a locker to check out bags once we checked out. I would probably stay here again.

Unfortunately, whilst this hostel is nice - lack of A/C

10.0 / 10.0

The place was very good located. Very safe location and really close to main attractions. Surrounded by restaurants, and stores. Amazing views from the common areas. Breakfast was simple but cheap, just what you're looking for in a hostel.

Excellent location! Clean. Wonderful staff. Will return for sure!

6.0 / 10.0

Staff were very friendly. The water temperature on level 2 showers was beyond inhumane. At least 40+ Celsius. Showered on level 2 were better since you could adjust the temperature. There weren’t lifts so had to take my 20kg luggage to the 3rd floor. Staff were really friendly, toilets were generally clean. The top of bunk beds were disgustingly dirty. Dust accumulated for years probably. Ventilation on the room was poor and inside the cubicle as well making it hard to sleep

10.0 / 10.0

Toilet and shower areas are always clean. Pod gives you just the amount of privacy. Storages are enough to accommodate both personal and carry on luggages. If there's one thing I would suggest is an option to rent or have an AC or Fan in the Pod it's the only uncomfy part of staying there for me but overall everything was perfect.

10.0 / 10.0

Booked the pod and it was perfect. Had my own locker and it was comfortable. Staff was amazing and friendly. Location was amazing and it was a great value

Everything is good, capsule room is safe with high privacy, bathroom and toilet facilities are in well condition, highly recommended

8.0 / 10.0

Here's my honest review: The pros: + The emplacement: How convenient it was it's right in the heart of Edinburg, you can walk to all the cool spots nearby. I highly enjoyed that. + The staff: There were all really cool, grateful to all of them. + The decoration: How cool they've made it for an urban hostel. + The price: Very convenient. + Private bathrooms + showers. + Awesome breakfast: Highly recommend to take the added option, it had a sweet selection and the cost was great too! The cons: No elevator: If you are in the third floor like I was with a luggage, get ready to do some stairs. The above pods: If you have a place in the upper parts, you will have to climb, just to be aware. Moving toilet floor: I had the impression that floor was moving, I think it was because it was the movement of the car from the street below. Thank you for having made my trip a great one!

1.0 / 10.0

Everything about this hostel was awful. From the experience at check in all the way until check out. They don't tell you there is no lift, so if you have a suitcase be prepared to schlep it of several lights upstairs. The guys at the front desk were rude and uncaring. Any requests were met with rolling eyes, and they acted like it was a huge imposition. The bunk beds had zero privacy. A few were up against the wall, but the rest were in the middle of the room with no curtains. You got a single duvet, and I'd be shocked if they were washed in-between guests, no sheet was offered as a barrier. ALL showers and bathrooms are co-ed, with the exception of one toilet on each floor. When i came back from dinner one evening around 9:45, everyone in my dorm was already aleep with lights out. It made it extremely difficult to get my things out of my locker with no light, and so I didn't shower or even brush my teeth that night as I didn't want to disturb anyone, because the door was ridiculously loud. And the lockers don't have locks, so if you don't have one, you'll have to buy one from the front desk. Other hostels I've been too are locked with your keycard. If you aren't checked out by 10am, they lock you out of the room, and then you have to go all the way back downstairs to get them to unlock it, again, lots more eye-rolling, and they give you a WHOPPING extra 10 minutes before you're locked out again! Stay here if you want to be treated like you're attending Summer Camp!

One of the best hostels we have stayed in. We had a private room, which was large and we had plenty of room. The staff were helpful and friendly. The location was fantastic, in the middle of the city centre. Unfortunately, it is an old building and sound travels around it. Our room was next to a door and we could hear it banging closed all night as others moved around the hostel. The hostel does supply free ear plugs, which helped somewhat. That being said it isna lovely old building with some clear history.

As far as hostels go, this one was premier. The staff are fantastic, the bathrooms were kept immaculate and plenty of facilities. The beds are comfortable and the rooms are spacious. I stayed in an 8 bed dorm and it was perfect from the view to the company. Theres a lounge area and breakfast has a great selection. Very central location and in walking distance from everything youd be doing in Edinburgh. I was extremely impressed. Thankyou kick ass hostels for a great base to recharge between hiking and touring. Ill definitely be back!

I really enjoyed my stay at this hostel. The bed was comfy and clean, the room was spacious and updated with usb plugs for each bed. The location was top notch, near a bunch of restaurants, cafes, bars, and a supermarket. The only negative was the bathroom. There was mold growing on the ceiling in the shower areas and the walls of the toilets were covered in unknown substances by other dirty guests.
