Really great place. Only downside is that it is not that well isolated noise wise and you can hear the doors close quite clearly. Pretty great otherwise.

The stay was as lovely. Fresh towels and bedding provided. Bathroom was nice and clean. Under the beds looked like they have been missed cleaning wise in a while. Oh well. All and all a great place to stay! Close to Arthur's Seat and a less then half hours walk to The Royal Mile. The included breakfast is incredible! The staff and patron's staying are extremely friendly. A great hub to enjoy Scotland! Will stay again!

It is very much a dorm situation, so be prepared to have ear plugs for noisy neighbors. Staff were great and accommodating.

Considering how much of a rip off every other type of accommodation is in Edinburgh, this was a good deal. The breakfast was superb; better than most expensive hotels!

Loved staying here. The property is beautiful and quiet. Breakfast is amazing. Bring your own coffee or tea because there is access to a kettle. Bed was extremely comfy. Shared bathrooms seemed to always be available and they were clean.

Staff friendly, helpful and responsive. Room and facilities clean. Parking secure and convenient. Breakfast convenient and plentiful, great to have so many options, including traditional Scottish. Canteen style works for the setting. Rooms basic but as expected, as is the overall stay. Would stay here again for the value and practically.

Nice big breakfast buffet and checking was very quick even though it was at a time when a lot of students were checking in for the school year. Considering it was just days before classes it was quite quiet all day and night.
