    If they have shampoo, body soap in the bathroom, it will be perfectly.

    This is one of the best hostels I have stayed at - if not the best. The beds are very comfortable and have privacy which is nice when staying in a dorm. The staff was super friendly and very helpful with information and good stories about the city. I have nothing bad to say about this place. It is also very conveniently located in the city center. Main attractions and sights are within walking distance.

    It was really cold, which is okay in December but a little bit of heating would have been more comfortable.

    the location is really really central, especially for your first visit.

    This was a great experience, to stay at a former jail. We enjoyed the only night we spent there!!! The staff at reception and breakfast area is do kind and helpful. The breakfast options are delicious and the price is excellent. The location is perfect, in the middle of the beautiful old town of Edinburgh. We will definitely come back again.

    • Pod in the Courtroom (Mixed Dormitory)

    the bathrooms were all clogged on the floor I was staying on which sucked and ruined my trip, since if I needed to use the bathroom, I had to go to another floor. such a hassle especially in the night. second, it was freezing in the pods for some reason but the bedding was warm so at least I could warm up with that. third, when I checked in, the front desk staff announced my personal code, which room and which pod I was staying in. there were so many people quietly sitting in the lobby who all heard. privacy for that would’ve been nice as it was my first hostel stay and I’ve heard a number of negative things before about staying in hostels so I was extremely worried someone would try to rob me or something since so many people now knew where I was staying. very concerning and I recommend they teach their staff to only show you the card with the info, unless you ask them to read it out for you. last, they don’t tell you about there being no plugs in the pod (aside from the 2 usb outlets) so I came thinking there would be outlets in my pod and as my devices are all usb-c, I had to spend more money on adaptors for my cords which would’ve been nice to know before I got there, since I have a bunch of adaptors at home I could use.

    it was in a convenient location and was decently comfy for what it was. it was cheap and I enjoyed staying here

    All 4 toilets were out of service for one night. Was sleeping close to bathroom entry so you can hear people chatting in the bathroom.

    Room and bathrooms are clean. Bed is really soft and comfy. Location is extraordinary. Free walking tour is real fun, definitely recommend.
