well..... if i was staying here with the wife she would have said "NO WAY HOSAY" as soon as she walked through the door and went else where,but as it was a stag night for 32 lads it was bearable for the one night just to get our heads down after a night on the drink. on arrival we asked... More

We were 7 friends and we booked a room for 8 people with private bathroom for two nights. Our room (number 104) was the worst I' ve ever seen in my entire life: there was not hot water in the shower, no heating, the floor was dirty and there was a water loss from the toilet, the basin and even...

The location: amazing! Everything else: barely tolerable. It's the little things - staff was regularly absent from the front desk for extended periods of time at all hours eg. our beds were stripped halfway through our stay which led to a 30 minute wait and arduous process to get new bedding, the rec room never closed, and security was almost...

I will make it simple: do not go there. To be honest the location is good. Apart from that everything is just dirty, ruined and even creepy. The rooms are dirty, the "decoration" is absolutely awful and the shower of our "ensuite room" did not have hot water at all. It is also very noisy at night. I did not... More

we booked in for 14 people got there and was told we dont have a room so we were told to sleep in the common room which was good crack if no one else from the hostel was able to get in, we were given three matresses between all of us no duvets no pillows and no hot water for... More

At first, I was fairly neutral on the hostel - the bathrooms were fine (though the showers occasionally ran out of hot water), the common room was decent (though the tv was slightly broken), and the rooms weren't in a bad state. (Aside from one mysteriously broken bed, but as we had enough beds regardless it wasn't too big a... More

This place was not at all like the photographs! No lift working so you have to trudge up with your case The rooms are stuffy, small with bizarre decor and dodgy electrics! Our plug was falling off the wall! There is no storage in the rooms except for old suitcases also the water ran out when my friend was in... More

I had the most fantastic time exploring Edinburgh with Art Roch as my base. Just off the Grassmarket, this place provides travelers with a beautiful place to relax. Our plane was delayed and we arrived late in the night/early morning and I felt safe walking from where the bus from the airport dropped me and my friend off. It is... More

If you are only looking for a (bunk) bed in a decent location in Edinburgh, look no further. However, if you expect comfort, functioning plumbing, lockable toilets, respect of the fact the bathrooms are single sex and not having to climb six flights of stairs to get to your room, look elsewhere! To be fair, this was my first hostel... More
