Excellent property for the value and location (next to major route for trams and buses to the center, restaurants, coffee shops, bakeries, and grocery store all nearby). Room was clean and even though we were on the first floor, very quiet. Electric tea pot with tea, coffee and biscuits were a nice touch. Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. 30 minutes walk to the center and safe at night to do so. The location itself was very nice and quiet from the bustling center, really appreciated all the locally owned shops nearby.

Rooms are very Small. Área around the hotel transmits a sense of “unease” at night. Otherwise, a good “price-value” ratio. Conveniente y Locatel near a main thoroughfare. Public transport a block away. Staff (specially Noura) top-notch!

Great value, clean room, excellent location, very nice staff. Only hitch was that the curtain for the skylight wouldn't close, but the nice lady at the front desk offered up some beers as an apology. Worked for me! Oh and they deactivated our room code prior to checkout time. Luckily there was someone at the front desk to give us an actual key card. All in all, great though.

An urban hotel located on a cul-de-sac. Conveniently located along the tram line. A very clean, small room. It has an updated bathroom with a rain shower. Nice. The exterior needs some TLC.

This isn't a fancy pants hotel but I would happily come back to it. The room was ready at 4 but it was possible for us to store our luggage from 12. The room was more than large enough for us, two adults and two children, queen bed and a sofa bed. The wet room was built to be accessible for wheelchair users. There was a slight drainy smell but it was fine once you ran water through the system eg after a shower. There wasn't a fridge in the room but tea and coffee that you were welcome to top up. It is situated off the Leith road which is has every type of cuisine conceivable so you won't go hungry. Very comprehensive transport links into town, or buses/ tram but also very walkable. All in all it is fairly priced for what it is. However the best thing about this hotel was the staff. They were so friendly and really wanted to be as helpful as possible. Honestly I would come back for them alone, really lovely people all of them.

Staff seemed friendly, the room had a chemical small which was a time overpowering. Very stuffy as no fan or air conditioning. No window blinds- Scotlands long summer days the room was very bright untill very late…. I was there for 9 nights would have been great to get the room serviced fresh bedding and towels and a vacuum of the floors but no such luck.
