Liked: Staff & service
The room smelled like wet and the restroom are not throughly clean. The male still came in without acknowledging themselves in the women restroom. The staff downstair were helpful and caring!
Legit built out of an old prison so so cool in there! The staff was so helpful and the coffee and restaurant was yummy! Also. . . You really can’t beat the location. Right behind st Giles? Come on
The staff is fantastic. The bunk beds are comfy & clean. They have daily activities in the common room (beer & whiskey tastings). The hostel is in the middle of many important historical sites. Right on the Royal Mile & close to Edinburgh Castle.
This hostel couldn’t be in a more perfect location for exploring Edinburgh’s Old Town. The staff were incredibly friendly and personable. The Court room is great if you’re looking for affordable sleeping space and don’t mind sharing space with other visitors.
This hostel hotel was so inviting fun and clean… It was also very safe… Love the options of food and drinks right in the lobby and everyone was so kind and nice
The CoDE team and this property were unbelievably amazing. Was lucky enough to snag one of the new private rooms. I was able to enjoy the city from this central location, wash my clothes, and be able to squirrel away for some serious sleep before hotting the toad again. A lovely dark and moody room with everything one could need.
In this day and age of self check-in it was a comfort to experience so many friendly and helpful COde team members. From check-in to breakfast and bar service and tour guides, everyone was exceptional.
