Wonderful location! Fun and quirky. My only issue was the showers. They need better drainage and/or a place to put clothes - especially if the shower rooms are mixed sex

I stayed two nights and had no issues. Hostel was super easy to find and a few steps off the Royal Mile. The kitchen was always busy, but there are several sinks and stoves and plenty of space to prepare/cook your own meals. Chill hangout space too. The rooms were clean and the bathrooms and showers were kept clean throughout the day. Overall, no problems and I recommend the place.
