Nice place and budget friendly!

We had a great stay, reception staff was very attentive to our needs. Place was clean, and we had quiet nights. Would stay there again. Breakfast was offered but we didn’t expect it to be. Price was right for our budget and that’s what was important to us.

Relatively clean and definitely quiet and walkable. About a 30 minute walk from touristy parts of Edinburgh, can’t beat the value if you just need a place to sleep.

Convenient location

The location is central to all the tourist sites. The employees are friendly. The hotel is clean. The main problem is insufficient water pressure in the shower.
