It suited our purpose for being in Edinburgh, in as much as we just needed a bed. It was clean, had hot showers and comfy beds, but the towels were small and well worn
The carpets too were rather worn and grubby looking.
Would stay again though, as we were not expecting luxury.

I enjoyed our private room on the top floor, it was quiet, peaceful and very spacious. We did not enjoy the poor water pressure and extreme temperatures of the showers. Additionally, the bathrooms could've been cleaned more often by the cleaning staff. Some of the staff were extremely friendly and helpful, some were rude and obviously did not feel called to service and being helpful. Phenomenal location!

We reserved private rooms in two different buildings. First one was a spacious twin bed en suite room down the block from the main hostel. It had tea/coffee making stuff, eating area and over stuffed chair. On the ground floor right inside the street entrance. Quiet. Second room on the1st floor further down the street was a just a bit wider than the bunk beds. Shared bathroom with one other room was right across a tiny hallway from our door. We used the communal kitchen to make coffee and heat food. WiFi worked well. Also quiet here.

The staff was unbelievably nice & accommodating, but
the 3rd story stairs are definitely for younger people.

I'm glad we chose this hostel as it is so close to everything. The bus from the airport dropped us at the bottom of the hill and it was a short walk, though it was up a steep hill. It was also a short walk back down the hill to the train station when leaving. And the Royal Mile is right there, only a block away. Cockburn Street itself is a place of amazing character. I was surprised that our room was in a different building around the corner and down some stairs. Once inside, it was up stairs again, so be prepared to carry your luggage. The room itself was small, but more than adequate. We never heard from other patrons, but the street outside was active through the night. We slept fine in spite of the voices from the street below.
