    The location of the hostel is very convenient, being in the city center and close to the Royal Mile. the hostel also offers secure single rooms with kitchen and bathroom facilities, which is a great advantage for budget travelers. the rooms are clean and comfortable, with comfy beds and clean bedding.

    Some of the bathrooms had maintenance issues, such as toilets not flushing properly and one bathroom not locking.

    As young holiday goers, we absolutely loved the central location of the hotel. It couldn't have been more convenient for visiting the Fringe Festival. Being in such close proximity to the main venues was a major highlight for us.

    We felt incredibly fortunate to have stumbled upon this hidden gem. There really was nothing to complain about.

    great value for money and perfect location. exceeded expectations after a disappointing previous stay in edinburgh. friendly staff, comfortable room, and well-equipped kitchen made it feel like a home away from home.

    No elevator for those with heavy luggage.

    I had an incredible stay at a hostel in the heart of the action. The location was perfect, right in the middle of everything. Despite being surrounded by the hustle and bustle, the hostel provided a peaceful escape when needed. The room I stayed in was clean and spacious, with all the necessary amenities. The kitchen was well-equipped, making it easy to prepare meals. The shower had plenty of hot water and the bed was comfortable. I had a great experience at Metro Youth and would definitely recommend it. I would highly recommend this hostel for its central location, friendly staff, and great value for money.

    The hostel is centrally located, making it convenient for festival events and exploring the city. It offers good value for money, with affordable prices for single rooms with shared bathrooms. the beds are comfortable, and each guest gets their own key for the flat and room, ensuring safety and privacy. the availability of washing facilities, a shared kitchen, and a 24-hour desk adds to the convenience and comfort of the stay.

    Felt well taken care of, no complaints whatsoever.
