Review by hotel critic
My recent stay at this hostel was truly enjoyable, thanks largely to the welcoming atmosphere and attentive staff. The cleanliness of the shared facilities, including the well-equipped kitchen, made it easy to prepare meals, while the spacious outdoor area offered a lovely spot to unwind after a day of exploring. I appreciated the free Wi-Fi in public areas, which allowed me to stay connected effortlessly. the strategic location near Haymarket rail and Metro links made it convenient to access Edinburgh's historic sites without any hassle. All in all, it was a fantastic value for money experience that exceeded my expectations and left me eager to return!
