Perfect location nearby the Royal Mile (old town). Personnel was really helpful and friendly. Room was clean; only thing missing was a toilet brush.

Prime location was in the center of city, five min walk up the stairs from train station, many pubs and shops all around, breakfast all the regular fixings and the staff was very friendly,
The room was clean but the guest bathroom could have been better 😭

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Room was clean and comfortable. Location was excellent for all amenities just off the royal mile. Staff were very friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay.
Clean room, appreciated upgrade, the staff are wonderful. The location is very useful.
Suggestions-include a Kleenex box, a facecloth with the bath towel would have saved using non compostable face wipes, change the breakfast at least a bit from day to day. Staying here multiple days gives the exact same items every morning.
Again the staff are very friendly and knowledgeable.
Excellent location, simple check in and a small cafe/bar in the lobby. If you’ve arrived by train the location Is so convenient (taking the market street exit there will be stairs). Location is also perfect for all the sights! Wifi was strong, A few steps to the room…but it’s Edinburgh and nothing is flat!
