Clean room, which faced the alley - a huge advantage as the other side was the Christmas market.

Easily accessible from both train stations (closest to Waverley). Is a bit hidden amongst the streets which can be hard to find in the darker seasons. Very clean apartment and super comfortable. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend. Stairs were quite hard work to get up to our 4th floor and were pretty steep. However, location was perfect for visiting all attractions by walking, which suited us.

Hotel is nice, staff friendly, good location, only negative feedback is the bed. The bed in our room was very uncomfortable. Had no cushion at all.

I wish we knew it was 5 flights of stairs with no elevator. We thought the sofa was going to be bigger and/or pull out to a sofa bed, but its only a loveseat and a queen bed. Location is fantastic and everything else was nice.

Amazing location. Lovely apartment with everything you need! Only issue- I wanted a king bed-it was a requirement , and got a queen. Easy code locks. Could use extra towels, salt and pepper for kitchen. Aldo- beware there is no lift. My elderly sister was challenged. But loved it overall.

Unbeatable location, spacious and clean. Simple check in. Loved it. Only small downside is that it’s a walk up, but if you have an issue walking up stairs in the hotel, I have bad news about Edinburgh in general. Prepare to climb lots of steps everywhere.

This property was great for two couples sharing expenses and each having a king bed with separate bathrooms. It was close to the tram station for getting back to the airport and it was in the heart of the old town. The place was clean and luxurious. Our unit was on the 2nd floor and there was no elevator but it was not an issue for us.

good place to stay

location is great. spotless place. amenities are in great condition too. downside: they require 300pounds deposit and if you reserve your space through hotels.com, you need to share your card information with them seperately otherwise your door code is not going to work. this is so annoying and needs to be improved.

Terrible, terrible experience. Avoid. They never got me access to the building and then only gave me a partial refund. Avoid at all cost.
