“This hostel provides budget-friendly accommodation within easy reach of Edinburgh Airport via bus, and places you a reasonable distance from the city center and its attractions. The helpful staff contribute to a positive experience, though some rooms can feel cramped with triple bunk beds and limited ventilation. I would consider this a solid choice if you prioritize affordability and a quieter location.”
