2-night trip

6/10

Basic facilities, fairly clean, staff were very friendly and helpful. The doors are quite noisy if you let them slam shut (which is easy to do). The location is quite convenient and fairly close to the city centre.
3-night trip

10/10

Unconventional location for a holiday as techically as its not a hotel but out of season uni dormitory rooms, good value for your money considering the London style prices of Edinburgh today, and with buses nearby going into Edinburgh within 10 or 15 minutes in a great location
1-night trip

10/10

A good stay at the Destiny Student accomodation. Check in was easy, most of it done before arrival. Room was nice, clean, basic but good. Only 15 minutes walk from train station, a few minutes from Hollyrood and the Scottish parliament builds. Would use this again, different from a 5 star hotel but gives you more money to spend on activities

It was ok and price was too high for 2star accommodation. Better that bunk beds around the city, price to high, was priced to 75 GBP per night for hostel accommodation

Really great affordable option to stay in the city. Room was clean, quiet, and the staff were great. Didn't really know what to expect for what I paid but was pleasantly surprised at how easy and basically good it was.
