The room (sleeping 3) was clean and spacious. It faces the back, so it was quiet despite major road and traffic going by the front of the building. Convenient location: Shopping center with Aldi is in 10-minute walking distance, and bus stop with connection to the city center right in front of the hotel. (You don't need a car in the city of Edinburgh). Staff wasn't overly friendly. The gentleman working at the reception disappeared when he saw my heavy suitcase...So did housekeeping upon check-out. Please provide lock boxes in the rooms and some shelves in the bathroom. Overall, my stay was pleasant and served my needs. I would stay there again (with less luggage...;))

The single room was adequate for my needs, I had travelled up from south England to pick up a daughter from uni and stayed 2 nights. Pluses: comfortable bed and decent shower (despite it seeming to only have one setting: hot) - which is all you need really. Nice location. I like walking so was happy to walk the 25 mins to daughter’s place / 50 mins into the centre and back. Very easy - basically one road. Negatives: my room was at the front so quite noisy and noises from either side of me sounded like an extremely old cistern or pipes every time someone had a shower or went to the loo.

Upon arrival we learned that the room that we were allocated was the so called "emergency room" where it was right at the front door in the reception area. If you opened your bedroom door, you can see the reception desk. The reception also informed us that the room had no on-suite bathroom. Our bathroom was the right next to the reception desk. So if you are needing the toilet in the middle of the night, you are walking into the reception area and likewise if you are going for a shower. We have no issue with the bathroom not being inside the bedroom, the issue we had was that the bathroom was literally inside the reception area for all to see. I went back to look on the booking to see if I had missed anything and no where on the booking information on the property, when you click to select your room, does that room appear. There was no mention of no on-suite toilet when we proceeded with the booking.

I like the surrounding of tranquility but recycle bin is at the reception area & not near to accomodation. So, we need to drive there to clear the recycle bag & put it back to accomodation isn't an easy option as we stay there for 3 nights.

OK. Clean and efficient, but a bit noisy from the road. They have a breakfast room but no longer do breakfast.

Unexpected good hotel

Self check in and check out with detailed procedure by emails. Female staff on our first day of arrival told us the ways and directions of going to town centre. Free parking was available. Transport to town centre is just outside hotel and is very convenient. A shopping mall is just around corner. Restaurants just a short distance from hotel.
