I was three times in the hostel between my trips to the highlands. The location is perfect and also the breakfast was great. The staff is really kind and I felt completely safe.

Buen hostel, con excelente ubicación. La cama era cómoda, si bien estaba en una habitación compartida de 8 personas tenía buena privacidad. A mejorar: el baño de la habitación era muy pequeño y se ensuciaba rápidamente, y había una sola ducha para los 8, aunque afortunadamente la misma casi siempre se encontraba

Won't stay again. Booked a 6 bed dorm with private bath. The room was dirty with left over trash from the last guest, there was mold in the shower and feces on the wall. It was disgusting!!. Room was so tiny we could not even move around. It was actually claustrophobic. Would not recommend 😕

'Hi there,
Thank you so much for taking the time to reach back to us with your feedback, we do always appreciate it so we can improve our performance.
I'm the manager you spoke with the morning of your departure, and I would like to take this opportunity to apologise once again for the honest mistake on our end in regards to your room's cleanliness on arrival. This shouldn't have happened and for that we do sincerely apologise.
The team on site and I were immediately worried and willing to do anything needed to help correct this mistake as soon as you brought it up to our attention at the front desk. We offered a room move to a properly cleaned room, this option was declined on your end, We understood that this alternative would have been an exhausting one for you and your group travelling for a long time so we did offer to correct the mistakes in the room and to deep clean it straightaway for you, this option was refused as well.
During our chat on the morning of your departure, the full amount of the last night was refunded to you as a token of goodwill on our end and apology.
We understand how frustrating this experience must have been, but as discussed, you had stayed previously with us and had a pleasant stay at the time. We wouldn't want for this unusual and unfortunate experience to cloud your time in Edinburgh, we hope you had a brilliant time in the city regardless and that you may give us another chance in the future.
We do have an extensive variety of hostels across the UK and Europe and our teams work very hard to provide great customer service, we offer amazing deals when booking directly at our website and hope to have the chance to welcoming you at any of our hostels in the future.
Wishing you all the best,
Violeta

Absolutely lovely stay here! The people were very welcoming, the beds were comfortable and the facilities were clean and proper. The location is spot-on, and we got to pretty much all of the main highlights within 15 minutes of walking. My only critique was that the presence of the common room wasn't told us during

Unfortunately the hostel cannot be responsible for those who are not very mindful towards the other guests.

We hope you will give us another chance in the future.

I stayed in B15 bed 7. It's always an enjoyable experience staying at st Christophers in Edinburgh. The staff are very hospitable, friendly and welcoming and the rooms are always clean and a great area to rest.

Hello St Christopher, The staff have been great and amicable. For instance, the UK had experienced cold temperatures. I had contacted reception team to increase the heating and your colleagues responded immediately. Overall, you have a great team
