Great location, the staff were very helpful and friendly. Comfort was low because the room had a plastic smell, the shower was built for handicap accessibility so it wasn’t as comfortable, and the bed springs kept jabbing my ribs. Very nice place overall : )

The hotel is undergoing renovation, so I think that's why we were given a room without windows. As a result, there wasn't much ventilation. The room and bathroom were clean. I think that for the price, they could improve the service at reception and the bar. Bear in mind that it's not in the centre, but you have good bus and tram connections

Shower was the highlight, great pressure and heat, room was nice and clean, solid overall place to stay at a reasonable price

Excellent property for the value and location (next to major route for trams and buses to the center, restaurants, coffee shops, bakeries, and grocery store all nearby). Room was clean and even though we were on the first floor, very quiet. Electric tea pot with tea, coffee and biscuits were a nice touch. Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. 30 minutes walk to the center and safe at night to do so. The location itself was very nice and quiet from the bustling center, really appreciated all the locally owned shops nearby.

Rooms are very Small. Área around the hotel transmits a sense of “unease” at night. Otherwise, a good “price-value” ratio. Conveniente y Locatel near a main thoroughfare. Public transport a block away. Staff (specially Noura) top-notch!

Ideally placed on the tram link from.airport but still walkable up to the port and into the city. Lots of dining options on Leith road. Room was just as needed for a 2 night stop over to explore the area.

We loved this hotel! Perfect place to stay for couple of days. Was very clean and very easy to find. Couple min walk from any kind of transport. So many cafes and nice local pubs and restaurants around. Would definitely recommend.

An urban hotel located on a cul-de-sac. Conveniently located along the tram line. A very clean, small room. It has an updated bathroom with a rain shower. Nice. The exterior needs some TLC.

Great value, clean room, excellent location, very nice staff. Only hitch was that the curtain for the skylight wouldn't close, but the nice lady at the front desk offered up some beers as an apology. Worked for me! Oh and they deactivated our room code prior to checkout time. Luckily there was someone at the front desk to give us an actual key card. All in all, great though.

Smith Place Hotel is no frills but was comfortable and the room was a good size. The only issue we had was that the wifi was very intermittent.
