Incredibly cool staff, arrived very late, lost myself in the city and phoned the wrong crew (Grassmarket heads up you great too!!), everyone was very kind. The building is kinda okd but still pretty comfortable. Clean around but people arenât the same. Would recommand 100000%!
PremiĂšre et derniĂšre fois en auberge, c'est vraiment dommage que certaines personnes ne respectent pas les autres et les sanitaires...
Sinon emplacement et personnel au top !!
Hostel was absolutely great! Perfect distance from the city centre and their bar was very nice too. However, showers only ever seemed to be lukewarm or would fluctuate in temperature.
Excellent customer service, friendly and welcoming staff. Cleanliness was on point, shower and toilet facilities were cleaned very regularly and were spotless.
I stayed here because I can access all the popular attractions within 5-10 min from this hostel. The share bedroom was nice and clean.
As I need to wake up very early in the morning and arrive very late in the evening, I wanna avoid affecting my roommate so I made a request for staying in a lower bunk bed. Unfortunately they did not reserve one for me.
The female shower+toilet (floor 2) was so messy. Not much space you can hand up your personal items. Toilet paper on the floor overnight, it should be checked/cleaned in the midnight everyday. There are only 2 showers and one of it has COLD water only. It looks clean (no hair) because no one want to take a COLD shower. It seems like an existing issue for long time, please fix it.
I did not know that I need to download an app for operating the washing and drying machines. And I need to top-up the balance before using it (washing 4GBP & drying 2GBP) It would be better to have an updated instruction. The connection point is named as "Cowgate" which is very confusing and I need to ask the overnight staff for help.
No microwave in the common area.
My family of four adults just needed a place to sleep after getting off a bus tour and before boarding an early flight. I booked a whole room, so we would have it to ourselves, but there are common bathrooms shared. Property was clean. We lucked out and got to take part in a trivia night in the bar. We lost but had fun. Food and drinks were good. Location is awesome. We roamed the streets and walked to the castle one last time before going to bed and catching our flight.
The Hostel is in a great walkable area near Grassmarket Edinburgh. Lots of local pubs and shops within blocks. Great location.
Compared to another hostel I stayed at in Glasgow, the Kick Ass had clean bathrooms, usable showers with good pressure & hot water.
Having a pub downstairs with food was quick and convenient.
Overall, a great and affordable place to stay if you dont mind bunking with other travelers. Everyone was nice and respectful in the dorms. No issues at all.
Ich habe kein Handtuch bekommen (zum GlĂŒck hatte ich ein eigenes mit). Bad war okay sauber. Bar war sehr nett und gĂŒnstig. Der Schlafsaal war ein bisschen unruhig da nachts auch Leute nach Hause kamen, aber so ist das in einem Mehrbettzimmer. Alle waren sehr nett
Clean place. Broken heat while weather was 0-1 degrees at night. Cold room and uncomfortable while moving throughout the space. Tried working with staff ti resolve the issue, solution was extra blankets. No warning or switch of room to have heat. No offers to make stay better.
