Guest Reviews

Kit Yi (6/5): - 職員很有耐性協助房間誤訂的問題，住宿旁是酒吧，會有點吵，也感覺有少少不安全的感覺
vanessa (2/5): - Séjour très décevant, sol de la chambre sale à notre arrivée, pas de lumière dans les toilettes partagé (donc la nuit vraiment pas pratique), une odeur d’urine pendant 48h horrible dans les toilettes, sol douche et lavabo remplis d’eau au sol, sanitaires sales. La salle de bain de notre palier en travaux mais nous n’avons pas été prévenus. Portes qui claquent la nuit un nombre incalculable de fois. Équipe au courant des problèmes suite à un mail fait dès le lendemain de notre arrivée mais n’ont pas apportées d’améliorations. Un manager en week end, pas joignable donc nous n’avons pas pu échanger avec lui alors qu’il nous demandait pas retour de mail de venir le voir directement. Nous sommes en attente d’un retour de sa part pour une compensation financière. Hôtel.com a été mis au courant dès le lendemain de notre arrivée mais n’a pas réussi à joindre le personnel, ils ont fait un mail. Je suis également en attente d’hôtel.com de la suite à donner à notre dossier. Le point positif est l’emplacement dans la vieille ville, très pratique, on peut tout faire à pied. Pour les personnes en recherche de faire la fête c’est la rue parfaite. Bien dommage que l’établissement ne soit pas à l’image du prix payé.
Vineeth (10/5): - The only small hiccup was the shower water pressure, it felt a bit weak. Other than that, the place was clean, central, and the staff were friendly. overall great!
Solange (8/5): - Over all a comfortable stay. It could definitely use some renovating and the stairs are strong concrete but molded oddly in certain areas. But the staff was extremely helpful and the area was very convenient for walking old Edinburgh.
ENRICO (10/5): - Safe
Edgar Abraham (4/5): - Rentamos habitación con baño y regadera y no servía la regadera. Nos prometieron arreglarla y no lo hicieron.
Mikel (2/5): - Si quieres llegar a Edimburgo y encontrarte sin habitación, este es tu sitio. Te aseguro fuertes emociones según te enteres que no hay opción.
Angel daniel (2/5): - Sebring tener mas atencion a los niños, se entiende que es un hostal pero mis dos noches parecia kinder en recreo a las 12:00 am mas de 10 niños corriendo por los pasillos gritando y tocando las Puertas de todas las habitaciones que estaban a su alcance, el personal comiendose los mocos fuera en el patio
Barbara (6/5): - Staff gentile, location fantastica in pieno centro della città, vero punto di forza della struttura. Mi sono trovata bene, non bisogna aspettarsi molto, la pulizia non è buona, ma per stare qualche giorno va bene. La posizione dell'ostello è ottima.
Rhojane (6/5): - It was a great place. Near by at downtown.
Ganesh Pandian (8/5): - Value for money except minor complaint.
Reygina (10/5): - The property was easy to find ! The staff are all lovely and helpful ! Excellent location walking distance from everything ! A lot of toilets and washing facilities. Clean beds and lockers for your stuff ( bring your own lock ). Would recommend ear plugs because it’s right across from three sisters and they play live music until like 3 am but that’s no fault of the hostel at all! I was prepared by the reviews so I brought earplugs, eyelash and had a good night sleep. All in all good place and did the job 😁
james (6/5): An ok place to stay if you love to party - The biggest thing that made my stay not so enjoyable,is that the bar across the street was so loud you heard the music in the room. Therefore it made it a bit challenging to go to sleep at night. Also outside of the hostel in the smoking area, the ashtrays were full. I asked the staff where I could empty the ashtrays. The staff said they would empty the ashtrays and they finally emptied them a day later.
Nadia (6/5): - clean, spacious room and toilet. Not enough hanging hooks. Windows MUST be changed, loud music comes from the pub in front until 3 A.M !!!
Colin (2/5): - I liked the closeness to pubs and clubs & the smoking area. I hated the bunk beds & the noise of the people in the room with me. I didn't sleep at all
Sydney (8/5): - The hostel was very close to the heart of the city, so it was near shopping, food, and activities. We didn’t need public transport for anything except getting to the airport. The hostel is directly next door to an outdoor bar/music venue, so there was noise at all hours of the day. Since there is no A/C, the windows needed to stay open, so we were constantly hearing whatever was going on across the street. It didn’t bother us any, but it may bother you if you are a light sleeper and/or are traveling with children. My one critique of the hostel is that the bathrooms were quite dirty, and they smelled pretty bad.
Darryl (10/5): Great location, perfect hostel for City Stays - Pleasant stay at the hostel. Having our own dorm was great and made it affordable for three people meeting up, visiting the City and just having a catch. Great location and close to the Cities parkrun that takes place on Saturday
Melanie (10/5): - Great experience, exceeded my expectations over value for money. The bunks have privacy screens around the head and feet of the bed, which made sharing a room feel less invasive. Music can be heard from the bar around the front of the building (it’s summer, so we had the windows open) but it wasn’t an issue, my days were so packed with walking and exploring that I slept really well! I found the bed comfy. Showers did the job, I brought my own towel. Would recommend bringing a padlock for your locker if you are concerned about valuables, but it would better serve not bringing ‘valuables’ (if possible) in the first place. I love Edinburgh and a place like this really encourages me to visit more regularly. Thanks Safestay!
Elisabeth (8/5): - The location is amazing. Staff is very nice. The shared bathroom was not perfectly clean and a bit smelly, that's why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5.
Calvin (10/5): - Perfect place thank You
Stephen (6/5): - The only downside was the noise from the doors outside our room banging, and the conversations being had outside our room late at night and early in the morning. But for £40, what would we expect? We'd stay again, though.
Verified traveler (6/5): - It was clean but everything is a money grab, 5£ here 6£ there. It felt like I was going to get asked to bring my own toilet paper
Jerilyn (8/5): - Felt safe and clean. Will definitely stay again if ever in Edinburgh.
SUTHASINEE (10/5): - Really near market, castles, museum and compare with the price I’ll give it 10/10
Karen (4/5): April 2025 stay at Cowgate safestay - I like the location in old town. However it was very hot inside the rooms there were no fans and the windows did not open. The first room I was put into was so small before bunks that I could barely move and they put me on a top bunk which I requested a bottom bunk. I was very unhappy about this and asked to be moved. The initial response was no that they were full in fact overbooked and I was told they did not know where everyone was going to steep that night. This was disturbing news to me. What are the staff came back and offered to move me to a six bunk room someone had not checked in and there was a mix up. This was a completely satisfactory bed and there was room in the room to move however again it was hot and stuffy and the windows did not open. I found the continent of breakfast to be very expensive for what was offered. I was also not very impressive there was nowhere to store food in a cooler or fridge. It was quite noisy with a bar two bars across the street however I dear plugs in the noise didn't bother me. The slamming of the doors did. Although I really like the location I would not stay here again. It is not close to the tram from the airport however I did not mind the walk. I also felt nickled and dimed. Even though I had a reservation for that day they charged me for luggage storage and after I checked out and had a few hours to spare the charged me another few pounds. There's a lot that could be done to improve the services offered here.
Liliane (8/5): - For just one night the hostel was ok. The only thing that bothered me was the large group of people who were together and talking very loudly and with music playing late at night.
Vinicius (2/5): Muito sujo e barulhento - Local sujo Nao disponibilizam toalhas Banheiros imundos , sem papel higiênico e sabonete Chuveiro funciona 15s , tem que ficar pressionando Ou fica mto quente ou muito frio Barulho extremo Muita sujeira Nao responderam as minhaa mensagens
Muhammad (6/5): - Duvet was very small
Isabella (8/5): Bra - Bra läge, väldigt centralt. Korridoren var ganska smutsig och fanns stora dammtussar och en hel del hår. Rummet var okej hade dock en lite konstig doft men annars bra. Sängarna var bekväma dock var kudden ganska hård. Personalen var supertrevlig
Brittney (6/5): - No individual charging port, only had a power strip that had to be charged. No shelf or light in the bunks. No bathroom in the room, had to use a communal bathroom. Which would have been fine but two of the three showers were out of order and the toilet didn’t have toilet paper. Location was good.
hind (8/5): - séjour assez court mais convenable dans l'ensemble. merci aux équipes qui font des efforts pour satisfaire leurs clients. bon continuation.
Justin (2/5): - Outdated, not clean, hot water didn’t work. Loud, way better options around
Helen (2/5): - I had a worst experienced in this hostel, its a small space and too noisy because the building is accross the pub bar and the toilets are so dirty and the showers terrible it won’t shut off and the water that came out was too hot! I am not gonna recommend this hostel to anyone!
Donald (8/5): - Good
Meret (2/5): - Massive facility that's poorly kept. No toilet paper, soap or toilet seats in the bathroom! Only sell (don't rent) towels for 6 pounds if you dare use their showers. Loud club across the street. We rented a private and were told when we checked in that the room wasn't available and we had to take a shared room instead. No solutions were available bc the manager wasn't onsite. If you like not sleeping, loud music and no safe place to lock up your stuff, then this is the place for you.
Karen (8/5): - The bunk beds were rough. Saturday nights are noisy but other nights were quiet.
Rebecca (2/5): - Lousy storage, have to pay for a lock. Poor room layouts. So loud opposite the pub
Shigeyuki (10/5): - I am fine.
Jess (2/5): - Would not recommend staying here, rude staff and constantly felt very unsafe in the building.
melvin (10/5): - Can’t say enough good about this place. Our second stay here. Staff and management are wonderful!
Lisa (6/5): - If you need a good nights sleep, you won't get it here. But! It is clean, and I (solo female traveler) felt safe.
Avery (6/5): - Ok location, loud area. Showers were terrible. Had to keep pushing button every 5 seconds. Cold water. Roommates sharing bed. Weird experience.
Anne-Marie (8/5): - Very friendly staff
Leslie Ann (6/5): - I stayed for one night and my room was clean, as was my en-suite bathroom. The reception area/common lounge was very nice and great for groups or families traveling together. It is across the street from a row of nightlife venues, most pointedly The Three Sisters which is an outdoor courtyard venue so the music is very loud since it’s open air. Earplugs are available for sale at reception but given that other hostels give those out for free and noise is a major issue for this location, it might be prudent to hand that out for free rather than charging guests. This is a place to shower and lay your head, not receive amenities and services.
Monika (6/5): Central but dirty - VERY much noise from the bar next door. The room was dirty. The beds were hard. Had to pay extra for towels and luggage storage. Friendly staff. Good location, very central. We stayed for four nights.
Hannah (6/5): - Beds and toilets were a little rickety, but otherwise it was pretty good. Convenient location, good staff, easy to get to places around it, and quite affordable.
Fatin Syahmina (2/5): - Ive never rated someone with a low rate but PLEASE READ this before you consider to stay at this place. I paid for 2 nights, and when i checked in they said the keys are broken. Hence, i didnt received any keys to check in. The staff brought me to my bed and said “here’s your bed, no 5”. 20 minutes later another woman came in and said to me “the staff said my bed is no 5.” Ive uneasy feeling of the staff didnt record our check in properly, but i just said “nvm you can stay in bed no 6”. Mind you everytime we go to the toilet, we need to stop the door with a bottle to prevent the door from being shutted (because we dont hv the keys). My nightmare didnt stop there. I went out for a hike at 2am (first night) and went back 1am on the next day just to find out that someone was sleeping on my bed and my stuff were gone. Crazy huh? When i checked with the receptionist, he said my bed was no 2. But even, bed no 2 ws also occupied!!! It was a long and hard day, but they let someone sleep on my bed and throw my stuff away. IM NOT EVEN CHECKING OUT YET. Solution? I need to wait like 30 minutes and they gave me new bed & room and i need to move all my things to the new room which was on the next level? Did i deserve this? The laundry also cant be used. They have no elevator. Oh u might want to turn the shower to the “cool” label if you wanna use hot water (: and always check if they have provided the tissue paper in the toilet first before you start your “business”. thank me later!
Chiara (6/5): Good but… - Good position but the service is very basic. You have to pay for any extra.
Arthit (2/5): - The booking system is totally unreliable. Double booking of a same bed is common. Staff is trying very hard to fix this system errors but they keep coming. Maybe wait until they are really ready if you don't want to be a lab mouse.
STEPHEN (6/5): - Staff friendly & helpful. Room clean. Bed allocation system chaotic. Breakfast Extremely limited. No wi fi. Bathroom door lock poor
Zoe (2/5): Not as advertised, expensive for not much - No hot water for the shower, no toilet in the en-suite I had paid for, no sanitary bins (communal mixed gender bathrooms even though paid for female ensuite room), no wifi or signal at the hostel which isn’t safe for solo travellers but also advertised as free wifi everywhere. No bar license yet so can’t serve drinks. Basically nothing that’s advertised is available, also charged double compared to what people in my room paid. Also randomly charged an extra £53 and not sure what for, noticed it on my banking once I got internet when in the city centre. Absolutely shocking. The guys on reception were helpful though at checkin.
