Location wise it was good and they also kept our luggage post checkout for some hours.
The problem was no code was shared by email to open the main gate and we were stuck for some time to get in.
When we tried to call nobody answered and when emailed the email bounced back as failure.

It is a nice place for us Backpackers to crash in for a few days. 30mins walking distance to the hike to Arthur's Seat, very close to a nice park in the front. The staff are friendly and there are Nintendo Switch, guitar, book, magazines etc in the common room. Fun place!
