Guest reviews
Very good
Liked: The pod itself was great, comfy, clean. The place is close to anything you might need.
Disliked: The shower was absolutely disgusting. Not caused by other customers, it was dirty because it hasn't been cleaned properly. Awful to look at and to use.
Friendly and clean, not great toilet facilities
Liked: Clean, friendly staff, comfy and private beds.
Disliked: Only one bathroom for 12 people.
Liked: Loved the beds being in cubes with loads of privery and the bathroom was loverly and clean
Disliked: Only thing i would mention is posibly a small cushion to act as a pillow as well, but honestly nothing to major

Liked: Great location. Stayed in pod & later, in penthouse. Both are great value for money depending on your needs. Good security measures. Great communication & information sharing by staff & fellow visitors.
Disliked: Poor ventilation in the pods.
A comfortable stay in the middle of the city
Liked: My review is potentially skewed by having stayed one night at CODE Court my first of 7 nights in Edinburgh. I think the Court location is pretty much perfect. The Loft location is just stripped down relative to the Court location. It has less amenities overall, which was surprising only because I was expecting a replica of the Court amenities. Overall, though, it's a cozy spot in the middle of the city. The bed is super comfy. Travelers were quiet and respectful. The staff was very chill and friendly. Whenever I get back to Edinburgh I would stay here again. This location is a little less busy because it's not right on Royal Mile like the Court location, which is great for a slightly slower pace when walking outside, but it's still close to everything -- there are some incredible food, coffee, and bar options all within a couple blocks from this location. And the tram and bus are 1/2 a block away and can get you anywhere.
Disliked: No checkout bag storage was a bummer considering the Court location has it. But I could see the Loft location is smaller and has less available space. There are bag storage options near by, or you can take your bags to the Court location for free.
Liked: Very clean, more privacy with little screen, good light setting. Overall very comfortable, loved the hangers for everyone, very organized
Disliked: Nothing
