Unterkunft für Personen ohne hohe Ansprüche, sehr laut (im Haus, Strassenlärm), für Familien nicht geeignet, Geruch im Stiegenhaus war sehr unangenehm und ebenfalls die vielen Stufen, sehr verwinkelt, Zimmer schmuddelig.

Central Stirling Stay, Willly Wallace hostel

Willy Wallace ( aka William Wallace, also see reference Brave heart a film). Excellent location for train station and central town area. Good access to places to eat or shop. Hostel kitchen large open well planned for cooking/ keeping your food and easy access plates, pans, knives. Large common room, feature size windows. Colour scheme pretty bright. Sit here to eat or to relax. Stayed in a room of 8 females, bathroom next door. Could do with more space/ lockable to hold all our travel and personal gear, small night lights handy when so many share. Beware of stair case has a slight spiral.

Very happy to stay again

The brittle and rooms are clean and the toilets are as clean as you can expect with so many people using them but I didn't have any problems and hotel was perfect for the bus and train station and also for shopping, eating out and walking to the historical sights .

Very warm relaxed atmosphere. Old school backpacker world traveler, college student vibe. People in the lounge reading, writing, playing board games, and eating we’re working on their laptops. Nice big Victorian windows in the bedroom. Room a bit cramped because they converted two bed room into a room for four.

great location

very close to the train station. Super friendly staff and the kitchen area was very clean.. which isn't always the case with a hostel. Free wifi and we were able to leave our bags for the day while we went to the castle.
