As good as the property was, the room I was given was big and spacious, but it started leaking water right on one of the beds when it rained just about the time I was checking out this morning. Apart from this, it's a fantastic please.

The location was good for the tram and offered a cheaper alternative to central Edinburgh but the room was quite tired and could do with an upgrade.

I have never been so disgusted at any hotel or guest house as this one. They were advised my wife was disabled and we were put in the basement using a spiral type staircase. No opening window only skylight dark dingy and very hot and stuffy. The overall condition of this property was in dire need of modernisation. The price is disgusting Your pictures on Expedia's website do NOT GIVE AN HONEST reflection.

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.

Average stay
The staff would benefit from being a bit more hospitable. We arrived fifteen minutes earlier with heavy bags and they made it seem like they were doing us a massive favour by letting us check in minutes earlier. Hiked up prices for Taylor Swift. Comfortable but not worth the money.

Only stayed 1 night as stopover. No breakfast or parking but room was clean and comfy, perfect for what was needed for us. Two things I'd ask to fix: shelf in bathroom was falling down and curtains didn't quite cover the window so light crept in bit too early. Other than that it was perfectly nice accommodation, easy check-in and check-out

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!

Very small and hot!
The room was extremely small and the heat was unbearable. We had to open a window that had no screen on the basement level. There was no sign to hang on the door and someone came in and folded the blankets but didn't take the garbage. Felt like an intrusion. Parking wasn't free until after 530, so we ended up with a parking ticket while we were checking in (100 pounds!) because none of the pay to park options would work for us. We even called the number and it wouldn't register our voice choices! The only thing going for it is it's location. It was clean, but very in need of updates.

There were a few issues with the property, unfortunately. There was a red stain on the carpet by the bed, the radiator was stuck on high temperature (meaning we had to sleep with the windows open in March), and the room was slightly dirty. Individually would have been ok but all three together made for a disappointing stay. We were told the radiator would be fixed the next day, however it wasn’t. When we spoke to staff they were helpful but were hard to get hold of. Wouldn’t recommend for the price.

Eu fiquei apenas por 1 dia, mas fui bem recebida pela recepção e estava bem limpo. O custo benefício foi uma excelente escolha, pois é perto do centro e o uber fica £7 até o centro.
