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.

Firstly we are shifted to a different property all of sudden and then that property is a nightmare. No WiFi. Tv never works. Glad that’s we vacated the property in one day itself

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.

Property was locates really close to the city central and convenient. Room was quite nice and clean. The only downside is the room key opens the front door as well. So it's safe to assume every room has the same key.

They gave us a big family house. The heating was on and the room temperature was perfect. The only thing I would like them to change are the pillows - they are quite hard.

A hotel that requires significant updating! No breakfast is served, but there is tea and coffee facilities in the rooms. Its a little noisy when other guests are coming and going, so be aware.

Everything was great, the service was great. They held my bags for me because we arrived early so we could explore a little. Only thing that was off was the bathroom door didn’t latch or lock. Not a biggie for couples. Also loved the ceiling window in the bathroom! Would stay again!

Disappointing. We were told it was free street parking. There is a charge of £3/hour for a maximum of 4 hours. You then have to move your car from the area for at least one hour before returning. This restricts the time for site seeing!

We loved the room and house it was in. We asked to use a microwave to pop popcorn and were told no. We also needed to store a couple bags for two hours after checkout. We were told this would be okay but then no one came to the door when we rang. We were traveling from overseas so this caused a problem in our sightseeing plans. It was a lot of money to pay to not get exceptional service.

Its too old and unkept, everything from chair to bathroom to bed/linens all so old and tatty. I was disgusted with the room couldn't eat in there, puts me off my food, not that that cheap either for such condition.

Rude staff, dirty rooms.
Unfortunately this property was sub par, with rude staff and dirty rooms. The room we were put in had mold in the shower, peeling paint and a hole in the ceiling. I did contact the hitel to advise but was told none of what I said was true, despite me having pictures. Avoid if you can.

Room and hotel outdated and old
The room and the hotel itself was outdated and old. Wooden floors made it noisy when you move around the room it creaks. Even the shower room looks old and the shower head can’t be moved makes it hard to maneouvre around when you shower. The guset house is a bit far from the coty centre around 20-30 mins walk.

Edinburgh.
Nice room at a cheap price, en suite shower and coffee making facilities. About half hours walk from Edinburgh Waverley train station or there is a bus stop just 2 minutes away. Pubs close by and Easter Road is just a 10 minute walk away. The guest house is situated in a quiet side street so I didn’t have any problem with noise. The check in was quick and the lady who I met was friendly and helpful. Overall a great stay at a cheap price I will definitely use it again.

Not good value for your money.
Friendly service from the people there. However the door to the window in my room nearly came off its hinges when I opens it and almost fell on me in my initial room and then the door didn’t lock to my room, luckily they gave me another room, however the window again was the same in the next room... Could not be bothered complaining again so put up with it. Looked like there was a blood stain in my room on the carpet also. Quilt cover was extremely thin and heating only gets turned on at night, not during the day. Extremely old decor. Would have been good to have a seating area out back since that space is being wasted. Would have been nice to have somewhere to go and relax outside.
