This was the perfect hotel as it was close to a train station literally 3 min walk from the hotel and the train would get you to the centre of Edinburgh. The room was amazing, so was the staff and tge food was delicious!

Its far away from the city. Some staff was not so welcoming.
The transportation (train and bus) into the city centre was close by and affordable. The beds were very comfortable and the attached restaurant had good food and friendly staff. I would definitely recommend this facility to others.
Just a short walk to bus stop that takes you into the city.

The manager took care of us & our problems, the woman on the night desk DID NOT which caused a problem for us that we couldn't get taken care of until the next morning with the manager.
The check-in process was easy and headache free.
The breakfast/ kitchen team were kind and helpful. Note that breakfast closes 30 min earlier on weekdays vs weekends (1030 vs 11).
The room itself was spacious with clean linens. No mini fridge or way to call front desk though. No outlets in the bathrooms, you have to blow dry your hair in the main room and the dryer is fused into the wall. The light next to the mirror was not operational.
The HDMI outlets did not work next to the TV.
In room carpet has seen better days as has the peeling moulding at the base of the tub.
Great location for getting into the city.
Check out was cold. The staff member at the desk literally did not acknowledge our existence, it was really unfriendly. Zero warmth. No baseline “thanks for staying with us”, which is a bummer when you’re travelling with little kids and trying to teach them manners. The interaction (or lack thereof) was so off-putting that we wouldn’t stay there again.

My main concern was that the HVAC system was not working well. We were in a bit of a heat wave and the AC was not working very well. Both the quantity & quality of air.
Love that the train station was literally across the street.
Schone,nette kamer.
Personeel vriendelijk, jonge blonde dame aan receptie heel behulpzaambij inchecken: we kregen een stekker voor de stopcontact te leen.
Locatie tegenover de treinstation.

Quarto impecável, lençóis limpos e macios, toalhas limpas, a equipe muito gentil, o hotel é pequeno, mas muito limpo e organizado! Ao lado do hotel tem um pub que serve uma comida deliciosa! Em frente ao hotel tem parada de ônibus que vai direto ao centro de Edimburgo. O café da manhã é delicioso! Eu amei tudo!
An der Rezeption gab es eine sehr freundliche Begrüßung. Das Zimmer war sehr sauber und gemütlich, ein bequemes Bett und TV mit genügenden Programmen.
Einladendes Frühstücksbuffet.
Ich komme gern wieder!
Posizione ottimale per evitare il traffico di Edimburgo. L'autobus si ferma davanti all'albergo e il treno è a 5 minuti a piedi.
Staff gentilissimo e struttura molto ben gestita.
