Good

Liked: Each Bed must have its own power supply cable instead of at other place or at other bed, further must be a separate light for each bed. Rest of the things were great.
Disliked: No switch board near to bed.

Passable

Liked: The staff are really nice and welcome
Disliked: They have bedbugs, i only stayed one night and my whole body is covered with bites. Even my face got bedbug bites, I keep imagining how it must be for someone who has to stay more nights there.

Bad

Disliked: The hostel is dirty, the beds are very noisy and the mattress is old with springs that hurt your body. The price is too high for such conditions. I am very disappointed.

Staff are fantastic

Liked: The staff are the glue holding this place together if you ever lose the main staff such as Sarah Stephanie gabby Kevin this place would not function right I don't think it's acceptable the owner let's them take the blame for everything being broken it's not they're fault they Go above and beyond for guest's
Disliked: It's falling apart bit by bit and staff ain't to blame

It did the job

Liked: Near the tram stop and the train station. Beds not uncomfortable. Aimable staff who know the building well. Good for staying if wanting to go out and enjoy the night life in Edinburgh
Disliked: Far from the city center. Beds moved around too much. Needs a better ventilation system, with the windows open was still a bit stuffy but that’s probably due to the amount of people in the room.
