The place is in a very good location. The staffs are helpful when facing problems. The shower room and toilet are separated. I would stay here again if I come back to Edinburgh. I would recommend bringing your earplugs with you if you’re sensitive to noises when sleeping. They help a lot. Also, bring your padlocks for storage case if you don’t want to buy it at the counter for £2.

Staff are nice, hotel location isn’t difficult to find, breakfast is better than expected, yet there are some dirt on the bed, no one clean the room in my entire 3 days living, no vending machine,  the kettle is mold, so I can’t get any drink when I am thirsty

Huge hostel right next to the train station. They run a lot of people through this place because it is reasonably priced which is the exception in Edinburgh. Location is good. The beds were above average but the hand dryers from the bathroom areas can be heard in the bedrooms an the trains can be heard during the day. They try to keep the bathrooms clean but it is a losing battle given the sheer number of people staying there. The bar that was attached had good food and reasonable drink specials. If you need budget accommodations in Edinburgh this is the place.

The location is ideal, it is close to everything touristy, supermarkets, the bus stop that brings you from the airport,... They leave you the preparations to make coffee or tea in the room and you can even ask for more. If you do not request it, they do not enter your room to fix it, put new towels or coffee, it is done through a cardboard that is placed on the door. The room is not big but you don't want more at all, the only drawback would be the shower which is fixed, it does not have a manual shower head. I would definitely take this hotel again.

Considering the price as I was traveling alone, I don't think it was bad, but the room was quite small and I felt a little oppressed. The space other than the bed was filled when I opened my large suitcase. There are almost no amenities, and there is a charge to store your luggage, so please be careful.

Walk up the slope till you reach the end, there you will see travel lodge right in front of you. Most attractions are walkable and you do not require to buy any bus tickets. Hotel main door facing south east, if you book rooms above main hotel door direction, you will catch morning sun and take beautiful pictures.

When you arrive on the first day, you need to call the person in charge. The B&B is not always occupied. The bathroom needs to be shared and the water pressure is very weak. The heating will suddenly disappear at night, but the price is affordable, there are many clothes racks, and there is free drinking water.

SsilkwormNice little room but still with more space than I had expected. Decor is tasteful. Love all the quality products. Love the 'Do Not Disturb ' cat. Underfloor heating in bathroom was great to start with but it gets too hot when you stand in front of the wash hand basin for any length of time. Bed is good and spacious.

GGuest UserEdinburgh 4Friends House is a wonderful accommodation with everything: location, atmosphere, and service. Located in the city center, it is conveniently located within walking distance of tourist attractions such as Edinburgh Castle and the Royal Mile. The rooms and common areas are clean, and the calming interior will soothe your travel fatigue. The owner and staff were very kind, and the sightseeing advice and warm hospitality were impressive. In addition, the kitchen facilities are well-equipped, so it is recommended for long-term stays and those who like to cook their own meals. You can sleep soundly in a quiet environment, and the affordable price makes it excellent value for money. It is a very satisfying place to stay when visiting Edinburgh!

GGuest UserBecause the travel plan changed, we booked a hostel at short notice. You know, it's not easy to book such a cheap bed in Edinburgh. The place is not difficult to find, but the stairs are small and it's difficult to move luggage. The toilet and bathroom are small, but they can be used. Breakfast is provided, and you can cook for yourself. It's very close to the station, and there are many shops nearby, including McDonald's. I left my headphones there, so I asked the customer service to contact the hotel, and finally they were successfully sent to the next city we went to. In short, thank you very much to Ctrip's customer service, and the response and service of the hostel are also very good!

RRuiyouBecause the flight was canceled, I had to return one day later than planned. It was my first time to experience a backpacker hotel, and it was really good. We arrived at ten o'clock, because the latest check-out from the hotel was 11 o'clock, and we had already booked a castle tour at 11 o'clock. It might have been past the 7 o'clock key collection time when we returned to the hotel after a day of fun, but the clerk was still very active in helping us find a way. Everything was taken care of very well, allowing us to spend the day happily without interruption. As a backpacker hotel, it is really good. The overall guest room is very comfortable and warm. We were given a triple room on the top floor with a double bed and a single bed. The elderly did not have to worry about climbing up and down. The shared bathroom on the floor is also very clean and tidy, and the roommates who share it also use it well. It is very convenient to have a sink in the room, which is very convenient for washing fruits, washing hands, brushing teeth and face. The room also has a TV and a small safe. The bedside table is equipped with a mirror, a chest of drawers and a cute closet. My small suggestion is that it would be better if there were more places to hang clothes, otherwise I think it is very good.

AAnonymous UserThe hygiene of this student apartment is really surprising. The bed and bathroom are cleaner than many hotels, and the bed is very soft and comfortable. The next day, I found a shared kitchen with all the equipment such as ovens, which is very convenient for heating bread. Coffee, milk and tea bags are also prepared. Although the location is a bit remote, it is very quiet to live in it. The bus is just outside the door, so it is actually very convenient to go into the city. I didn't want to leave after staying there for a few days. It was very pleasant.
