Great place , clean, friendly staff , room was a good size for 2 people. The only thing to keep in mind is that it is 35 min walking from the center.

Property was exactly as advertised. It is student accommodations. Can't beat the price for a few nights in Edinburgh within walking distance of Arthur's Seat and the Royal Mile. Hot breakfast (7:30-10:00am)was really good and included in the price. Buses were frequent and nearby.
I was there as 1 adult with 1 infant. They had a high chair in the cafeteria for breakfast and provided an infant cot (no sheet) for sleeping. Staff were really helpful.

The property was a quick 20-minute bus ride via route 30. Walking distance to Arthur’s Seat. Quiet area. Lovely campus. Don’t let GPS fool you. If you are taking the bus, get off at Commonwealth Pool. Take a left off the bus. Walk to Holyrood Park Road and make a right walking towards Arthur’s Seat. Pass the Commonwealth Pool Complex. On your right there will be a Guard House for the University. Walk past it. The Reception Center will be on the left. Hope that helps!

The staff was not truthful about check-in. Instead of saying, "we do not allow check-in before 3" I was told my room was not ready. However, dozens of people were checking in while I was waiting. Amazingly at exactly 3, my room was ready.
The laundry app did not work nor did the kiosk that sold cards. I had to pay double price to have my laundry done at a location 3/4 of a mile away.
The breakfast was excellent and the room was comfortable and tidy. They could do a deeper clean, but there was nothing terrible,

Check in was quick and very efficient. We stayed 3 nights with breakfast included. Excellent selection. Evening meal offered for £21/person. Again wide selection. Alcoholic drink available from Arthur's Bar next door. Room clean, but very basic. No hairdryer offered. I had trouble connecting to internet. Easy walk down into the main town, approx 35 mins, but plenty of taxis or buses.
