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.

It’s a hostel… pods were well put together, but the room that I was in at least, barely had room for 2 people to pass each other on the floor… super small. The bathrooms were clean, but could use more toilets for the number of people IMHO. They use the code system for everything… access to outside door, room and locker were the same code. Some confusion on arrival when they switched my bed and locker number without notifying me, so the locker number in my email didn’t work… it did get sorted fairly quickly, but I saw others struggling with locker codes, or even the outside door… still kinks to be ironed out. My biggest complain was the price… it was during fringe, so everything got increased I’m sure, but when you pay hundreds of dollars a night for a dorm bed, you feel like you haven’t received value for money.

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.

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.)

Excelente, a localização é ótima, fica muito perto da princesa street, os pods são excelentes assim como o banheiro e a cozinha. O staff fica efetivamente na outra unidade deles mas respondem super rápido ao WhatsApp e quando estão lá são super solícitos.
