It was easy to get to places from here.
helen, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

The staff is really kind and helpful. To be a hostel, it's pretty clean, and they clean once per day. I like that you can cook your own meals. Guests respect everyone's own time, including being quiet in the room no matter the time of day. However, compared to the CoDe court, it is way smaller, has really bad storage for luggage, and needs a renovation/refreshment, and is therefore pretty pricey.

Remember earplugs

Perfect location, and nice sleeping cubes. Unfortunately the noice from the street (a bar at night and every morning glass containers ar being emptied and trucks delivers) - also the ventilation maybe form the bar is really loud. Remember good earplugs.
Stine, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Fine if you’re used to backpack hostel living but at £180 for the night it was ridiculously expensive. Stuffy and noisy, but obviously a great way to make money by putting four people in a small single room.
Adrian, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Perfecte location if you dont mind sleep in the pod.

10/10 Exceptional

Very clean and efficient Big common kitchen Clean bathrooms Lots of thoughtful touches One drawback—its Near a big bar, in the morning the trash (all the beer bottles) is very loud

Penthouse private apartment was stunning lovely rooftop views over Edinburgh with a roof terrace where you could sit outside . Style and amenities in flat were great too . Would definitely recommend staying here

MICHELLE, 1-night trip

The code system was difficult to use. The area seemed sketchy. It was dirty and run down
Jane, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Stayed in a penthouse. Amazing for the money, great central location. The room was very big, with a balcony! Staff very friendly. However, water pressure in the shower wasn’t amazing, and the room wasn’t fully cleaned before our arrival (had some rubbish from previous guests.)
Olesia, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This place was wonderfully located to make use of public transport, trains, and simply walk to anywhere in the city. The Standing Order, The Black Rose Tavern, and The Auld Hundred were staples in my stay, and they were a 5 second, 10 second, and 1 minute walk from the front door of The Loft. The only thing I would have liked would have been a fresh towel every few days.
James, 12-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great place to stay, could use some more entertainment options such as the bar at pod the court. But otherwise fantastic
