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.

Lady Lockhart - Play by your own rules

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.
