I arrived at this establishment in the late afternoon. As I was on a 'stag do' I immediately assumed that I was involved in some sort of absolutely ridiculous and cruel 'wind up' designed to psychologically destroy the stag before the 'do' had actually begun. Unfortunately, it wasn't, we were actually staying there. The 'checking in' process was initially similar... more

Avoid this place like the plague! It is filthy - bathrooms, bedrooms, corridors, bars, windows, stairs etc etc - all filthy. The air in the corridors by the bar and in the stairwell leading upwards from beside the bar area is fetid and stale. The carpets are dirty and stained, especially outside the bathroom doors. The bathrooms have to be... more

Cool graffiti on the wall, bar was there so good place for fun, but room was dirty and basic, bathroom wasn't that great either. Staff were friendly though, I remember the guy at reception being tolerant and helpful with me when I stumbled in drunk at 2am and explained to him that I'd lost my room key (they probably get... more

we loved the hostel. it was right in the centre of the city, it had loads of funky gravitti on the walls. it was a little run down but it added to the atmosphere. the rooms were clean and the breakfast basic but great. it has a bar with really cheap drinks, which we loved. more

We found the hostel easily enough; fairly near the main street, Princes Street. The first thing that struck me were the wonderfully painted walls. Very cool designs. Which should have alerted me to the fact that this was kind of a party hostel. We booked a Triple Room, and on the first night, there was a massive party in the... more

The location is superb, the hostel however shockingly dirty!! I could not believe to find such a dirty and disgusting place in Europe. The bar in the hostel is nice but that is the only feature there. The beds and the whole state of the rooms is unacceptable. more

The hostel was crappy, one of the glass of the window was broken and patch with newspapers. It was so noisy, especially the saturday nigth. The bar was great and the people I met too! more

After arriving late on a wet cold Friday evening, me and my friend could have cried. We battled through the smokers, and the tipsy folk to get in. The place instantly looked run down, and not what we were expecting. Someone literally has gone buck mad with a paintbrush, to the point, my eyes were sore. Our room (coincidently room... more

I've stayed in this hostel with two friends in the summer of 2007. We're all young guys (23 yrs old) and used to quite some crappy places, but this certainly was the worst accommodation we ever stayed in. We booked a 4person-room for the 3 of us. The first thing we noticed when we arrived, was that the hotel was... more
