text: I wish I would found places like this when I was backpacking this time last year It offers Star Budget Accomodation if that is not a complete contradiction of itself or in other words it is just a cross between a very upmarket youth hostel and an ok hotel I even spotted a conference suite when I was here which surely is not something that the majority of youth hostel cientele are going to need and instead of a bar where you can order food they have a Bistro Is that really necessarynnIn fact it is so ridiculously highspec as far as youth hostels go that it is hard to find much to criticise about the place It was really clean it was modern yet comfortable the staff were great and it was not expensive So why only stars I think to call itself Central is a little bit of a claim and not really that accurate Central would be in the Grassmarket in the Old Town or around Princes Street like most of the other hostels in the city Not in Leith
