Beds were comfy

Stayed in December 2023

Booking.com does not make explicit requirements for photo ID prior to booking. Toilet has an air vent jammed open (bracing early mornings!!!)

Great, quirky establishment in a grade 1 listed gothic building, rooms functional and themed by an artist. Staff helpful & friendly, value for money with a location close to centre. Manager managed to sort i.d. issue, other staff really helpful to extending stay. Really impressed.

Little far from the city centre

The building is beautiful, is such an experience to stay in an old church. Comfortable and clean.

It would be nice if the hostel management intervened to the disrespectful and drunk guests roaming noisily the rooms after midnight. I was sleepless until morning. Also, it was a little difficult to find a receptionist.

Nice shower.

The organisation was chaotic - I waited for half an hour the first day before they managed to check me in. I had two seperate reservations and was told it was impossible to grant me the same room, although there were clearly enough vacancies. The rooms were stuffy, although it could be fixed by opening the door.

It is located near Dean village, which is a very pretty part of Edinburgh. The fact that it is a church makes the stay more interesting. The showers were clean and they had hair-dryers to borrow.

Thin walls + sound carries easily inside, hot and stuffy when rooms are fully booked, bed/pillow were really uncomfortable for me, tight showers

Wall art, separate bathrooms for female and male, lots of space in the shower rooms to put your things, good neighborhood, next to a lovely forested walkway by the river, walkable distance to tram and buses, great kitchen area

very loud, thin walls. bunk beds were outdated and small. no place for luggage in the dorms. toilets didn’t flush well and the women’s showers were very small.

friendly staff and great location. the building itself was very cool and a good layout. comfy and cosy beds

But the beds and bedrooms are very small and cramped. It's really a 'crash pad' for younger people.

This place is fairly central in Edinburgh, it's quiet too. As hostels go it is well run.

Stayed in July 2023

the ambience inside wasn’t really what i expected, the toilets were quite far away from the room and not the cleanest

the location was good, the beds comfortable

Stayed in July 2023

Rooms were uncomfortable & tiny. Beds had creaky noise. Noisy. Can hear footsteps & people chatting in corridors/other rooms

Ideal location, historical significance of buidling, walking distance to city centre. Rooms were okay, good communal space with xbox/kitchen facilities, pool table

The location is great. The place is quite clean. The staff was amazing. Shout out to the miss from Austria. She's incredible and I hope she keeps that bright smile and vibrant energy going.

Noisy at night with staff doing work around building, putting out bins at door beside our room, got woken at 3am and around 5am, so didn't get a decent sleep, was also quite expensive for a hostel.

Clean rooms and bed ,decent shower and toilet facilities.good location away from traffic etc

The dorms were stuffy on one night but better when the door was left open!

Not much space to put ur things

Is a church! :))

Stayed in June 2023

A little draughty during the winter, but the hostel is set within an old church, and so this is understandable. The big negative for me during my stay was when I checked in as I felt very uncomfortable when they asked to take my credit card details (including the 3-digit security number, which essentially allows anyone to use it for payments), despite my having already paid for my stay in advance. I did ask for assurance that this would be erased in due course, which they said it would after 2 weeks, but still, I have never been asked this at any other hostel, so it deterred me a little from staying in future.

I really liked the themed dormitories and the beds were very comfortable indeed. The large communal seating area features a kitchen and is accessible all day long. The Wifi is also quite good. The showers were hot and powerful, and generally cleanliness in the hostel was very good.

Nice location, only a 20 minute walk from the centre and the crew was very nice and helpfull.

Stayed in May 2023

The room is choked and far from the toilet and bathrooms.

I like the location. The environment is clean and tidy.

small rooms, not too many people in each room. friendly guests.

Stayed in April 2023

it’s very cold, but one of the people asked for a heater and reception gave us one

it’s very unique in a church. the beds we’re comfortable and it had a cool style about it. the kitchen is very good, and sometimes they had free food in there

Really interesting to live in old church. You should try it.

Stayed in December 2022

Very cold, very noisy, so big it can be difficult to find one's way around, not very clean

Located in a former church, great space

Stayed in October 2022

very cold bathrooms

I liked the room, hot shower and bathroom utensils

Stayed in December 2022

Only cold water in shower. Towel and breakfast were not included. Room is cold. Room key was old and big. If you have small padlock for locker, you can't use because the hole is small but lock itself is huge so you need long padlock.

Looked like a church. There were socket and light for each bed, warm bed, large kitchen. Art concepted room. Dean Village was really close although city centre was a bit away.
