I had a nice stay in a female only room. Although many beds are crammed into one room, everyone had privacy by curtains around the beds. All in very good condition and clean. Met some very nice people there, 4 pound breakfast was worth it (though free if booked directly over their website). The offered free walking tour is the same as the one starting on the Royal Mile close to Starbucks, it does not matter where you wait for them. Elevator was broken.
