Very tired property

It’s just a collection of odd rooms in a house. Furnished rather poorly it’s not the sort of place you would want to spend all day sheltering from the rain, even if the facilities were there to do so. Very very basic room but well cleaned.

Really needs a good clean and scruce up. Walls are so thin can hear the whole household. Bathroom fan sounded like a generator. Really not worth the budget price.

10/10 Exceptional

My stay at this hotel was absolutely pleasant. The hotel is easy to find and located in a great spot, making it perfect for a comfortable stay. From the moment I arrived, I was warmly welcomed, which left a great first impression. The room was clean and well-equipped, making me feel at home right away. The location was also a big plus: everything is nearby, which was very convenient. I would highly recommend this hotel!

10/10 Exceptional

Booked the room for 1 night, was comfortable, not too warm not too cold. I could hear water when someone upstairs flushed, but that didn’t prevent me sleeping. 10/10, would sleep there again.
Melodie, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

This place had good ratings when I found it in January so was disappointed with the standard of the classic double room for a 3 night stay. The room had a low ceiling so getting around the bed was difficult, the furniture was dated and looked homemade from the 70’s. Tired furnishings. The bathroom drain smelled so had to ask for it to be bleached. The only thing in favour of this accommodation was its proximity to the tram which was a 5 minute walk. Also the landlady gave us advice on places to eat nearby which was useful. I suppose you get what you pay for but would not return or recommend.

Great wee place to stay

Lovely quiet street. Even sleeping at the front there was beautiful peace and quiet. Room was wonderfully cosy on a cool November night and made you feel welcome.

Håbløs indtjeknings-koncept

Vi boede der i 4 nætter. Værelset er som udgangspunkt okay. Badeværelset var ikke helt rent og gulvtæppet var plettet og beskidt. Det værste var dog klart indtjekningen. Man bliver bedt om at ringe på en dørklokke udenfor også burde hjælpen komme og lukke dig ind. Vi ventede 40 minutter ude foran døren på trods af flere opkald til de oplyste numre, hvor ingen tog telefonen - selvom det var i indtjekningsperioden. Man vidste ikke om hjælpen var på vej da der ingen reaktion var på at trykke på knappen eller ved opkald til nummerne. Da hjælpen kom var hun sur og ydede 0 kundeservice. Virkelig god placering ift offentligt transport og midtbyen, men indtjekningskonceptet var et kæmpe minus.

Great modest place. Quiet neighborhood close to tram/buses. Comfy bed, great shower. Carpet needs changing.

Lovely Stay!

Perfect stay in Edinburgh! Easy to check in and out and the hosts are very helpful and accommodating. Great if you need an easily accessible place to stay while touring Edinburgh. Very close to the tram/bus stops and in a quiet neighborhood!

Clean, comfortable and close enough to walk around Edinburgh and see some of the sites. Couldn’t have picked a better place.

The staff was very friendly and helpful, the room was lovely and clean, it is very quiet area and not far from the shops, we had a lovely time, thank you to the staff for making it so.

Well situated for what we needed.

Just a quick overnight before heading home to Canada. Well situated close to Tram so we didn't have to fight through the Royal Highland Show masses to get to the airport.
Jamie, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good location with nice bars and restaurants nearby. Walkable to city centre and Leith town centre but also lots of transport options. The room was clean. The bathroom was clean enough but there were areas in the shower that need re-sealing and the shower floor was chipped in one area. Plenty of toilet roll provided though! Room was always lovely and warm which was nice considering how cold it was outside. Bed was also comfy
