Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The lodge staff were kind and helpful however the room felt dark and musty. I could hear people talking and moving around in adjoining areas. Shower small. Probably would not suit anyone over 150 lbs. or 5'10'. For the price it seemed below average. It was close to bus service and grocery stores. Kind of a weird check-in process.

Small adjoining room to bedroom.

The hotel is a short 2 minute walk to the nearest bus stop with buses leaving regularly to and from the city center (a 30-minute bus ride). It is also only 2-3 stops from the Edinburgh Zoo. Breakfast is available, but not included, and is a little pricey, even for the cheapest- the 'continental style' breakfast.

We were greeted by a lovely staff member close to 9:00pm. Easy check in. Very quiet area. If stairs are an issue you will need to request a downstairs room. No elevator. Our room was pleasant and clean. Perfect location only 3 stops from the airport.

Unpleasant stay

The mattress was had springs sticking up and uncomfortable. Our room was up 2 flights of stairs… one flight of stairs was a small spiral narrow winding stairs and it was almost impossible to get your luggage up it. There was no elevator. There was also suppose to be WiFi and it did not work for our entire stay.

Nice, peaceful room.

On a bus route. Just bit further out of town from Edinburgh Zoo. Friendly welcome at the door as we arrived. Nice clean quiet room with double bed & single bed, & en-suite with shower & bath. Nice views out over garden. Peaceful night. Very helpful hosts. Hopefully we will be back.

Staff was rude and tried to take money at check in. Requested an extra £60 to check in to our 4 person room. Bathroom had dust on all of the fixtures and cleaning people ignored a do not disturb sign.
