ItalyThere aren't enough bathroom for the whole hostel
The bed was very comfy. The position is wonderful to reach both the royal mile and bus/train station to other cities

AustraliaUnbelievably small bathrooms, no changing/drying space for the showers, one communal bathroom for the whole hostel (two toilets, three showers, sinks the width of a hand, no benches/places to put anything - fine if you’re staying a night or two but more than that and it becomes ridiculous, I ended up joining a local gym just to be able to have access to a proper bathroom after a few days. Super noisey - your room either faces a significant construction site or a skip/bin/generator alleyway. The lounge/dining area is also very small, again, fine for a few nights but not for longer.
Clean, nice staff, great location, good kitchen facilities

United KingdomThe only disadvantage was the narrow circular staircase to reach reception and rooms on the 1st floor.
The staff were very helpful carrying by large bag upstairs for me. The bunks were solid with no movement if others climbed up and down and there was a good food selection for breakfast. A handy location close to the railway station.

United KingdomWith a total of 48 beds they need more than 2 toilets and 3 showers in a unisex bathroom
the hostel is super close to both the bus station and Waverley Train station, so location is amazing. The staff is wonderful (Declan in particular is magic). Their breakfast is basic but plentiful.

United States of AmericaI wish they had more earplugs. Maybe I just didn't get to them on time.
This was my first time staying in a hostel and it went beyond my expectations. The location was superb, being incredibly close to Waverly Train Station. The staff were friendly and went beyond expectations- especially Declan and Sophie. I would definitely stay here again.

ArgentinaIt was dirty and smelly. The staff was not helpful. The showers were tiny and you had no room to get changed.

BrazilSimple things like a shower cady can make life much easier. Room was really warm and windows are shut with opaque glass. Constant noise outside from sth that sounded like a massive fan (but we didn't know what it was because of the shut windows) The bathroom window doesn't open either, which is not really appropriate for an ensuite shared bedroom.
Location and staff are excellent
