CoDE Co-Living - THE LoFT - Edinburgh

Good value for money

Great little hostel with all the bells and whistles that you might need. Minimal staff, but everything is clear for check-in and check-out. This is an excellent option if you are a solo traveller looking for something a little more quiet than a rowdy party hostel. The bunks and bathrooms were very clean! The only downside is that there is only one toilet for ten or so guests on the first floor, but I understand that space is limited in Edinburgh. All in all, it is a great hostel with everything you might need for a great stay in Edinburgh.

大変便利な場所にあり、綺麗で、設備も良いと感じました。 何よりもスタッフの方が大変仕事熱心で、ホスピタリティ高く、快適な滞在でした。 他の宿泊者の方々にも恵まれたと感じています。 ありがとうございます。

Everything was great. Easy to find and the instructions in the email to get into the hostel was easy enough! Bed was super comfy and lockers easy to use.

The nicest hostel I’ve ever stayed in. Service was great and the location couldn’t be beat. Was a terrific way to explore Edinburgh!

First time I’ve stayed in a hostel like this, the pods were comfortable and warm, check-in was easy. If you have a big bag like I did the rooms are a bit small and the bag doesn’t fit in the in room lockers.

The hostel itself was quite clean, but living in a dorm it is always largely dependent on who is staying there with you. Most of the girls were very quiet and respectful and tidy, but over the days there were one or two that made it messy/dirty for the rest. But nice to have the sleep pod which was my own space. A LOT of noise from the free house/pub outside the door, often until 3 AM, and again early in the morning when garbage and recycling were collected each day and pub being restocked. Ear plugs are a must. Windows were left open most nights for air despite the noise, but with the blanket provided the pods were quite warm enough. Tiny little flat pillow provided - if this is not suitable bring your own pillow / neck support. Overall very reasonable for the cost, lots of food choices and transport nearby, less busy than staying on the royal mile. Good if all you need is a place to sleep. Would stay again, but not for more than 3-4 nights - then I want a real bed!

Overall I am content with everything. I would come back again.

Hotellet ligger i et hyggeligt område med mange restauranter. Det var hyggeligt at der på min seng lå et postkort med en anbefaling til, hvad de anbefalede, jeg skulle se. Personalet var meget imødekommende.

Room was clean and the bed was really comfy and the location was great only thing was the rooms can get rather hot other than that was a great stay.

Property was great! Loved the pods, gave a little bit of privacy and were cozy! The only issue I had during my stay was the locker being difficult to open. I had to get some help at one point because my code stopped working. But staff was phenomenal. Spaces clean. Not an overly social hostel as most kept to themselves but the girls I roomed with were awesome! Would absolutely stay again.

I stayed 2 nights in the penthouse, everything was great and the location is perfect.

I liked the location, it was easy to get around most of the city.

I started feeling itchy and had bumpy rashes on various parts of my neck, arms, and torso after my first night, however did not realize that it was from bedbugs until I finally saw one on night 3 of my 4-night stay. I immediately took a photo of the insect before removing it (along with some others I found) and sent a message to the hostel with the photo attached. My message was marked as read and not responded to at all, which I found to be disappointing. I did not sleep at all that night out of caution of being bit again by another one I may not have seen initially. That morning, I did actually see another one which had just fed. Unfortunately, I had to acquire alternate accommodations last minute due to this reason, and this has proven to be an expensive change in my plans. I notified the hostel's team via the number provided, with photo evidence of the bedbug, as well as a voice-call with a live attendant at their main branch the next morning via hostel intercom as they did not answer the call from my personal phone, followed by an email with evidence of my claims. I requested a refund. It has been almost a week, and there is still no response. Very disappointed and would like a refund for this stay and treatment.

Property was easy to find, on the side street. Was rather untidy outside/entrance. On arrival, I wasn't able to qccess the property as I did not complete "check in" paperwork, uploading ID. wasn't ideal as I had no indication prior that this was a requirement to generate a code, wasn't aware there would be a access code to enter in. Luckily I was allowed to access to sit in guest area (make shift kitchen area with table & chairs) to complete paperwork, uploaded ID then try to work out when and how my booked space would be. No instructions provided from Expedia or Code Loft with regards to this, also no staff on-site to welcome, give indication to where to go. I was concerned to find no lift on-site, as I was within Penthouse (top floor), with a current restrictive injury, so I had to climb 4 floors with a case. No mention within of no lift. Positive of booking; penthouse was quirky, good size with seperate lobby, accessible to bathroom. Nice decor. Albeit some finishes a little tired. Balcony a nice touch when sun is visible to relax with, though the views are limited by other rooftop/chimneys or surrounding building, with slight site of Edinburgh Castle/Military Tattoo Stand within. On reflection, was lovely, bed comfortable, facilities great within penthouse. Nice touch with guests, but no instructions available to use this to experience coffee with pods available.

Smaller than it appeared on line

Was comfortable enough and I felt safe throughout my stay. The only « issue » would be that it would get quite warm in the pods so I had to open the curtain a bit, which gave me less intimacy. Very nice area - walking distance from every interesting attraction. Don’t bother paying for a tram pass. Would recommend!

I had a good experience! In Code we have mor privacy than the others hostels. I really enjoyed my experience.

Very good

One of the emails I received had an incorrect code number. I could not enter the property. However Amber helped set things right.
