The room was fine although very compact
steven, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

I was disappointed that when we got a double room, only one seat was available, and no one on hand to answer the bell ( after 9pm) to get me another one. I also felt the staff member was indifferent to me. I did get a decent night's sleep. you wanted feedback, take note of my comments. Btw I thought the shower was excellent.
Thomas, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

It's close to public transportation . It's a quiet residential area. The only issue was the construction site that didn't allow my driver leaving me at the right place. However this was not the property fault. I liked that my room had all the amenities. Also, the lady was very nice.
Patricia, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Not my favorite, but relatively inexpensive

Low ceiling over one side of double bed made me feel claustrophobic. Room was small, but bathroom was fine. Street was torn up with construction. Had to wake up narrow stairs with luggage.
Shelley, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Nice room in quiet location.

Nice small room, minor issue was only one small coffee cup, and there was an empty/used milk container on the windowsill. Cozy, very good shower and nice big TV. Quiet location.
Philip, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

A great place to stay if you’re traveling alone.

Nice and comfortable
John, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Perfect for what I needed

It was everything I needed for a 4 day stay in Edinburgh. It’s right on a bus line and the tram is easy to walk to. Everything was clean and the bed was fantastic. I’ll happily stay here again.
Jennifer, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The bed was very comfortable, had a nice sized smart tv, and bathroom with all the amenities. The shower in particular was amazing. A nice waterfall shower with very hot water. Area is safe, quiet, and near the bus stops.
Leonardo, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

I was needing accommodation for one night only. This property is perfect if you require a clean, quiet place to sleep that’s close to the tram.
Cheryl, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

It is ok to stay for a night or two, but for longer.
Hans, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Reception was great. And very accommodating. Just needs a little sprucing up. New beds and pillows and carpet would be lovely. We needed a place to stay for 1 night and it fit that purpose. I left my electric toothbrush there and was able to retrieve it the next day. Very much appreciated.
Susan, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

The single room is a bit tight as is the en suite, but kept clean and the shower is good. The city centre is walkable and will have a tram system nearby on the Leith Walk when it’s finished. Parking ok on the street and is free.
Robert, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Really good for the price, was a little bit out of the city centre but couldn’t complain. Staff were friendly, although there English didn’t seem very strong. Otherwise would recommend for anyone

6/10 Okay

There was black mold in the shower growing. It was not cleaned in the three days we were there. Wifi was spotty and didn’t work half the time.
Keely, 3-night trip
