Clean and comfortable. The best of both worlds (AirBnB and hotel). The room was made up every morning but the cost was quite low. I'd stay again when I return to Edinburgh.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The place was charming. I loved my room - very much a guest house, more like a B&B than a hotel, which is what I wanted. The small decanter of Scotch in the room and the shortbread biscuits were a delightful touch. While the location might seem less than than central, it was only a short and easy bus ride from central Edinburgh - though I preferred walking up Leith Walk into town, which has lots of cafes, pubs, bookstores, used record stores, etc. along it. Suited me down to the ground

Very comfortable, good value, a lot of charm, convenient location, away from the hustle and bustle but a short easy bus ride into the downtown area (buses come all the time and you can pay with credit card 1.9 pounds each way).

Sad accomodations.

I got locked out of my room right away and luckily another guest was able to get ahold of staff.They used an antiquated physical key that was unnecessarrily heavy. My bathroom was in the hallway outside of my room and was a pain to lock. There was no kitchen or bar, but an empty room that could have been used for that purpose. The price was descent. Yet, you wouldn't want to be there except to sleep. I wouldn't stay there again.

Luke was so incredibly friendly! He greeted us at the door and made us feel right at home with a tray of tea and snacks. Hotel was clean and we walked easily from the tram station. There were several cafes and bars nearby as well.
