Hotel reveiw
Room was very small and bathroom on another floor. Not what I was expecting
Beds were fine
Place looked poor for maintenance. Bathroom door frame coming off and curtains did not cover windows and this was a ground floor room
For a family
The room was quite nice. We had a quad room with two single beds and a double bed for four people and in suite bathroom. They only could give us one key for the four of us and they locked the outside door at 7 PM. this made it difficult for us not to travel together. Someone always had to be available to let the others back in if we went out later.
We were in the basement which was nice and cool, however you could hear everything from the people above us which was quite awful.
Other than that it was a great stay and suited our needs perfectly.
The building was old with single paine windows with shutters that a one inch gap between them. Not the best for the early sunrises in Edinburgh. The bathroom was the size of a phone booth and the pillows were as thin as a folded face towel. We had two suitcases and you could barely move in the room because there no space for the suitcases. Would NOT RECOMMEND this hotel to anyone!

Room not at all as pictured. Beds were clean and comfy, staff was very nice, but the room was not the nice one in the picture and was small and not that well appointed. It was also quite hot (no fans available) and very noisy all night. Could hear every voice, footstep, and door in the building.

It was a lovely old home that needed a wee bit of repair. The floor in our toilet was cracked and smelled of urine around the toilet. However the bed was clean and very comfortable and staff was very nice.
Room pleasant, bed comfortable, shower amazing. Near to playhouse. Bus across road.
Good valve for money.

Very easy to find.
Good check-in.
No offer of WiFi code.
The interior could do with an update, looks a bit tired.
The room was a good size, again could do with a refresh. Bed was comfy, pillows could do with being replaced for newer ones.
Room was warm.
Other residents were noisy with allowing their doors to bang close.
Generally good stay for couple of nights for a family, big room for 2 adults and 2 children, toilet and shower clean, the hotel not far from central edinbrough, bus stop in front of the hotel, but not offering any meals at all, you have to buy food from outside.
