This place was wonderfully located to make use of public transport, trains, and simply walk to anywhere in the city. The Standing Order, The Black Rose Tavern, and The Auld Hundred were staples in my stay, and they were a 5 second, 10 second, and 1 minute walk from the front door of The Loft. The only thing I would have liked would have been a fresh towel every few days.

Stayed in a penthouse. Amazing for the money, great central location. The room was very big, with a balcony! Staff very friendly. However, water pressure in the shower wasn’t amazing, and the room wasn’t fully cleaned before our arrival (had some rubbish from previous guests.)

Excelente, a localização é ótima, fica muito perto da princesa street, os pods são excelentes assim como o banheiro e a cozinha. O staff fica efetivamente na outra unidade deles mas respondem super rápido ao WhatsApp e quando estão lá são super solícitos.

The checkin process, in my case, was terrible. I had to tell them I was coming, did not get the entry and room codes beforehand via email like I should have, had someone else take my bed which meant I needed a new code the front door, room door, and locker, which they changed without telling me. This resulted in me being locked out that evening, and having to call the emergency number to sort it out. For me, the beds were not comfortable and, as noted by others, the pod is hot.

This hostel has all amenities you would expect at a hostel. It was quiet to sleep in the "pods" and I appreciated the hot water! (as most travelers do). This location is close to attractions and is walkable to National Art Gallery, National Museum, and even up to Edinburgh Castle. The staff were excellent. A real plus that you can leave your luggage before you check in, as well as after you check out, so that you can benefit of a full day of your visit without dragging your stuff around.
