Nothing comes to mind right now

Very good location. Central and easy walking distance to the castle and so many other locations. Lots of food places to choose from around.

Bathroom was way too small. Had to pay for towels. No alcohol in the rooms…but I did anyways. LOL😉

Friendly staff. Loved the black coffee and pastries. Quiet and peaceful at night. Very comfortable beds, pillows and comforter. Very secure with keyless doors.

If I attach some complaint, it would be the plug-in space. There was only for 2 USB code. So someone needed to exploit the socket infront of the mirror.

Whoever could deny this hostel's strength! The price was affordable for everyone. Here was located at the center, so it was easy to check in at night and check out. The bathroom was furnished some cleaner and hair dry if you require to reception. I used to stay in capsule hotel many times, that's why I could compare with others. My opinion is that it was a 5-star experience that can be contrasted. Turning to the conclusion, everything, even if sleep and sheet condition and else adopt, was pretty nice.

The rooms were a bit humid sometimes.

Great location, very close to all the major sights.

As a 71 year old, I found the pod difficult to use. I don't have the needed flexibility to turn around inside the pod, to easily enter and exit. But other than it, it was very comfortable. It would be excellent for a younger or more flexible person! It's not for the claustrophobic though.

The location is fabulous. The hostel is spotless and staff is helpful. It is well designed and maintained. The pods have great amenities (lighting, shelf, USB charging port, black-out curtain) and provide more privacy than normal hostels.

I know it's Scotland. But having lived in Japan I was expecting the level of services of Japanese capsule hotels.

Right in the heart of Edinburgh

Clean, central location, kitchen, cafe, great showers

It can be a bit tricky to get to the upper pod as stairs are really on the side but that's an issue only for sucky climbers like I am.

Location is awesome! People, atmosphere, staff members - the best hostel I've stayed at (and I'm not a hostel type of person, if I'm being honest). Clean, nice, all processes are smooth, internet is great. I would stay there again. Unexpectedly making new friends was just an added bonus;)

The bathroom/showers were not that clean as I expected

The hostel is in the city center which is really nice. The beds were comfortable and the staff was really nice. The optional whisky tasting session was also a nice experience organized by the hostel.

I loved this place. It's in the top 5 favorite hostels I have stayed in, in the 40 countries I have traveled to.

The showers were clean but a bit small. You can do laundry there but there are only 2 washing machines and 2 dryers

Nice hostel! I stayed in a pod in a women only dormitory and the bed was comfortable. Amenities were great, staff was helpful. The hostel is close to the station

Nothing of significance.

The Hostel: I stayed in the “courtroom” and despite having upwards of 30 beds, it was spacious, welcoming, functional, clean and quiet. Each bunk is equipped with a privacy curtain, charging station (USB connections only) and a large electronic locker for your valuables — locks use a numerical code to open/lock. There's plenty of space in the room for oversized luggage. WiFi network, shower and water pressure all worked great. Common areas offer cozy vibes with plenty of seating and whisky/beer tastings. The Stay: The bed was comfortable and the dorm is well designed. CoDE is situated in a very safe and secure neighborhood. The hostel is gated with entry codes provided to guests for access control. Its prime location emerged as the standout feature. Conveniently located and a short distance to most attractions (100 Airport Link is a brief walk away). The Service: The staff were incredibly kind and helpful. They were always available to answer questions and offer tour recommendations. Towels are provided free of charge and the breakfast was great. Social activities held on-site regularly. 10/10 would recommend!

Bathrooms could take a bit more care cleaning

The best value for the money if you’re on your own. It is a hostel keep that in mind… the rest will surprise you on a good way! Great people there

We had to store our luggage for the Skye tour and the POD does not offer storage once you have checked out. We had to use an app to find another hostel that offered luggage storage. We got to see another option for hosteling, and I think we all felt lucky to have picked the POD.

As a 63 YO female traveling with friends, none of us had never stayed at a hostel before. The POD was right in front of our tour company's pick-up point for our 4 day trip to Skye, so we booked it. 5 of us in one of the 8 pod private rooms. We had just completed 4 days at the Marriot in Edinburgh as well as 5 day self-drive tour staying in various AirBNBs as well as one night in Sterling Highlands Hotel. None of us knew what to expect of the POD and really enjoyed the unique (to us) experience of hanging in the bar and common areas and making our breakfast in the morning in the communal kitchen. Staff was great. Bathrooms were immaculate. Bedding was pristine and comfortable. The theme was cool. Never been to jail, so it was a first for me. Convenience was great.

The corridors were a little dark. making it a difficult for a slightly vision impaired person as myself to key the entry codes in. But that was all part of the atmosphere .

It was 1st time for me staying in this type of accommodation and I was surprised by the pleasant atmosphere. The pod was comfortable and I felt secure. I wish I had discovered this type of accommodation when I was younger. The other guests were respectful and considerate. Making it an enjoyable experience.

Maybe a little busy/noisy on a bank holiday weekend but that can’t be helped * I would maybe book a smaller dorm the next time.

So central. I was nervous about staying in a hostel but it was absolutely fine, I felt safe, I loved my little bed pod curtains for privacy. The staff were great.

Stayed in May 2024

I expected a little bit of noise with it being a hostel so I booked the smallest dorm available (at time of booking, 8 person) but it was particularly noisy with people running up and down corridors shouting and screaming at midnight.

Quirky. Washroom facilities were new, modern, clean. Pod was perfect for privacy. Lockers well thought out idea not requiring coins. Coffee/ Breakfast available from 0700hrs. Shared kitchen was nice in the morning. Great location.
