"Great cost benefit in a modern hotel. Pros: It is a 15-minute walk from the city center. The rooms are modern and new. There is a very good ceiling showerhead. The place is very clean. Self-check-in and check-out. Cons: The bathroom has no door - the toilet and shower are separated, but there is a curtain to separate from the room. The room and the beds are small. Breakfast was the most disappointing part: very basic with stale bread and no juice."

"I liked that the room was clean, the service was friendly, and the hotel was on a direct bus line to the base area of Edinburgh castle. However, it was very strange to have a frosted bathroom door right in front of the toilet seat. It might have been just my room, but if you are sitting on the bed, you are looking directly at the bathroom and you can see the shadow of someone sitting on the toilet."

"Even better than the photos. Granted we stayed in the Clarendon / Suite so unable to comment on other rooms but would happily recommend this place to all given our overall experience. The design, feel & quality of the place really is a pleasure. The area is pretty and quiet with independent offerings on your doorstep, while still being around the corner from the main shopping streets if wanting to head that way. Would definitely stay here again."
