great location, super well maintained and clean and very comfortable beds with good secure lockers and everything you need in your bunk bed re phone charger ports, shelf and curtain for privacy :) can’t say enough about how onto the cleaning the staff were and I feel bad for them as in the mixed dorm every day there was something disgusting be it faeces in the toilet or green snot in the sink but then 5 minutes later the bathrooms would be sparkling again! bless them haha on my last night I had an incident where a man in the bunk above me was very drunk and vomited off the bunk onto the floor only my bed while I was in the pod below and obviously it was disgusting but the staff were so quick to help and had me moved immediately to a girls dorm for the night and were so nice to deal with !

Staff member is there every day to change linens for new arrivals and clean the common areas. Home from home! Kitchen is great and, as I like to cook, I prepared a few shared meals. Felt very comfortable and safe. Property is in a great central location. Staff responsive at all times.

The code system is very difficult to work through. Many people sitting at the door trying to get,in but having difficulties because the e-mail didn't arrive, or the temporary code before 3 pm didn't work,. There is a button to call an operator, but sometimes they are after hours. Also, one toilet and 2 showers on each floor for all genders and not always operational. You can go to any floor to use facilities, so a minor problem. A bathroom on the ground floor beside the kitchen/common area would be a plus.

The place was small but convenient and well-located. I think it is a bit expensive for a hostel but everything is expensive in Edimburg. The kitchen and shared space was really nice.

There is only one bathroom and shower per floor. 6 to 12 people on one floor with only one bathroom is not ideal. Although the kitchen and shared space was nice, I do think it is still small for the amount of people that fit in the hostel. At certain hours there was no space and everyone was mostly working so if someone needed to cook and eat it was tricky.

This hostel was in a great location in Edinburgh. There are no staff onsite, but all the information is given before check in so it is clear how to get in. There are pin pads and an app that you can use to open the front door and the room door. My room and bed were very clean, and the locker was big enough to store my things. Each bed has a little shelf with 2 USB ports so you can charge your devices in the pod with you. There is also a larger outlet outside the beds if you need to charge something larger like a laptop. Although I didn't use them, there are also large lockers available next to the common room to store your luggage before and after check in/out. The beds have a curtain for privacy, and a light switch at the base of each bed. The blankets are warm and the mattress felt like memory foam. Paper towels are available in the bathroom, and ear plugs are provided next to the bed. The lockers open with a 4 digit code you set each time you close them, so they are easy to use and no lock is needed. There was a motion sensor floor light that turned on in the room when you enter or exit which makes sure you don't have to turn on the main light in the middle of the night.

The bathrooms were clean, but very small. On my floor, which had 2 rooms, there was a shared bathroom with two shower stalls and one toilet. Sometimes I had to wait for the toilet, but most of the time it wasn't an issue. What was difficult is that the toilet stall was very small, so it was hard to close the door and get to the toilet behind. The hostel is located in a dimly lit smaller street off a busier street, so it was a little hard to find the first time, but there are large signs that help. The common room was smaller than it looked in photos.

Very well positioned just ten minutes away from Waverly station and 200 yards from the airport service bus stop. 100 yards away a Sainsbury's supermarket and many bars and restaurants to choose from. Within 20 minutes on foot it was possible to be on the Royal Mile and up to the Castle. The rooms were modern and the bed pods comfortable and clean. It was also possible to cook and make drinks in the communal area on the ground floor.

It was difficult to access the building - there were no official admin staff on the premises as the main building was on the Royal Mile, and it was necessary to send a QR code reading to that office, which I found out only by chance with another guest as we hadn't received the email giving us instructions. It would be a good idea to have someone there, especially at times when guests have confirmed they would be arriving. The next time it will be easier!

This was such a great little pod perfect for a solo traveler. The rooms were clean, plenty of space for using the bathroom considering it is shared, everything was digital from checkin procedures to the locker codes. I felt safe, I had enough privacy and the common kitchen was so nice they even thought to provide guests with food labels for the fridge. For a solo traveler looking for a decent reliable place to sleep in a clean and fairly private surrounding this was great value for money. The location was perfect. They also provide extra lockers to store luggage on the day you checkout so you can still travel without carrying your bags, they really thought of everything!

It was perfect - just as advertised. I have no complaints! :-)

The location was brilliant! Great room (I booked in the three bed all-female dorm and was lucky to have quiet roommates.) The value for money was brilliant, the locked facilities (room lockers) felt secure, as did the rooms due to the key codes needed for all access in and out of the rooms, and the main entryways. I also accidentally left a ring behind in my room, and was was able to contact the reception staff at the secondary location, and the staff went above and beyond to help ensure it was returned to me during a frustrating ordeal with DHL couriers! I couldn’t be more thrilled and pleased with the level of service I received for something which was technically my own mistake. Really really amazing staff!

The bed pods were sparse, as expected! But it would have been good to have an actual plug outlet instead of just a usb options. Great other than that! The people staying on the floor above were quite nosy, but this is totally out of the hostel’s control - the facilities themselves were amazing.

Location is excellent, and facilities are clean. Staff isn't much, other than the cleaning crew as reception has been moved to a sister location, thus there is no reception staff on site. They do provide a number if needed to be reached but don't expect a very social area/way to ask many questions. Did not get to visit the other location but heard it is nice. The rooms are small but nice, just as expected. Ear plugs are provided for a quiet night's rest. Decent sized lockers (with digital keypad) can easily fit a carry on or backpack. There are USB ports in each capsule and a light. Overall, really enjoyable experience. I just didn't enjoy my mattress as it was indented in the middle and not very comfortable. Comfortable showers were also clean and never fully occupied.

Only request is for a more comfortable mattress pad (or maybe flipping them would help)

CoDE-The Loft doesn't feel like a bustling hostel (neither Code-The Court back in November, actually) Despite being next to a Wheterspoon pub, it was super quiet. The female-only pods were private and comfortable and the cleanliness, specially the bathrooms, is extreme due to a lovely lady called Danusha and her dedication (Thanks, Danusha, for staying after hours and helping me with the issue with my locker when I made a mistake closing it) I recommend The Code and surely stay there again in the future.

Again.....the bunk ladder :-/ I wished it was slightly inclined (See the Josemari Hostel in Mallorca! ;-)

The pods were good as well as the location.

The room had little space to move around. If all people in it wanted to organize their stuff at the same time, it would not be possible. I never received the email with my code to get in, and since there's no physical reception, I had to communicate with them at the door (following the instructiond they keave there) and it seemed a common thing as I saw two more in the same situation. It worked out well, but I kept thinking if this happened out of their working hours, I'd be outside for a long period of time.
