Best accommodation we’ve stayed in for a long time. So comfortable, clean and handy with the kitchenette area. Staff were so lovely. Very central and within walking distance of so many places in the city. Will definitely be staying here again.

Basic but functional
Had a good stay here for the Fringe. Room is compact, but only needed a place to sleep really. Bed was a small double so was cosy for me and wife to share it lol. Room was quite warm with no real way of getting airflow to cool as window would only open a little and all fans were issued out

The room we stayed in was in pretty bad shape. Black mold in the shower and quite a strong musty smell overall. Walls were damaged and it was just kind of run down. The staff were great however, and were very helpful with providing things like fans, hair dryers, etc. The area is okay, but feels a bit sketchy at times. Close to the Royal Mile (15 min walk) but not much in the immediate area for restaurants or other services.

Accommodation review.
Reception staff were helpful on check-in and any other queries. Room was clean and bed comfortable. Chair at desk also comfortable and room and bathroom both clean.Was not too impressed with way duvet had been left in a bundle on bed. When sorting it out, noticed several attachments at bottom of cover were missing. Showers now are much better. Some more width on shelf above sink would have been useful to hold wash bag, towel and fresh change of underwear without some of these falling off.

My room was clean and comfortable. However, it was extremely warm and stuffy. The window only opened a couple of inches. The exterior was in rough shape, overgrown grass, garbage strewn about. But great location, just minutes from buses and the start of the Royal Mile

Typical dorm room. Easily accessible. Bunk bed squeaked and the usb ports were questionable. Overall the experience was good. Kitchen facilities were very nice and it was clean. Front desk was helpful. Price was right as well.
