It was good but…

I was disappointed that I could not close the window in the room, I really had to slam the outer window, but the inner window would not close, the street below could be noisy and I was woken up by a Man shouting at around 4am one morning. Also no telephone in the room to call reception, I found this odd for a hotel.

The property and staff were great. The double rooms feel more like you’re in a cruise ship rather than a hotel. But it’s conveniently located and clean.

Can really located near the royal Mile was very convenient but the hotel Was closer to a hostel. Staff was great — but the room Was Like an office that had been co veered with a fiberglass small bathroom Plopped into the room, sitting six I chew above the floor. The breakfast was mediocre And they had only one coffee machine working which meant waiting in line for 15 Minutes To get a cup of Coffee.

Quick stop over

Wonderful location and good for the price. The room itself was older and likely should be renovated in the future. The shower was quite small, but again it did get the job done. Minimal amenities- not unexpected for the price point.

The staff was great! The location was amazing so much to see within walking distance. Restaurants, shops, bars, historic ... everything. The room it was a good size room but the bathroom was this one piece unit. I felt like the toliet was going to fall off the wall. The shower was tiny so tiny I kept hitting the handle and shutting it off..was a little annoying. They dont really have any outlets by the beds; they did provide an extension cord but it only reaches one of the beds. The beds are a bit on the firm side. This is an older hotel the hall carpet is worn and coming loose. The lobby was a little on the small size, fills up easily.

The property is good. Great location, and great Breakfest. The room had triple window panes - so was very quiet. Our room had gurgling water pipes and a sewage smell in the bathroom on the last night. I did report it on my way out and I sure it will be addressed. The staff were all very good. Would recommend
