Traveller reviews
Gisela “Fear price, good location, no luxuries.”
06 Jun 2025
It’s well located, under 100m from the royal mile peatonal centre. Friendly staff 24/7 and really pet friendly. It’s got a reasonable price in a city where prices are crazy, just don’t expect more than a youth hostel.
“A not-bad experience”
