No complaints based on the price oft he stays. ##### Stephen Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Abigail 26 Jul 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities This is fully a dorm room. It’s serviceable for a quick stay, but it didn’t smell the freshest. The staff was extremely kind and it felt safe. ##### Abigail Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Jodie 16 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities This property is clean and provides the basics. It is not a hotel but is a college residence used in the summer for others to stay. The residence has several bus stops just a few steps out the door that will take you to the town centre and airport and numerous other areas. There is also a grocery store close by. The beds are small so if it says two can stay … it would be difficult for two people to sleep in the one bed. ##### Jodie Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Ronald 19 Jul 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities For two people the bed was too small. No close-hangers Window frame was broken. The hours to check in was limited. ##### Ronald Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Eustace 6 Aug 2025 The young receptionist insisted that I must show either a passport or a driving license in order to check in even though it is not mentioned in the confirmation email. I showed the confirmation email and text but they didn’t help. ##### Eustace Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Chetan 13 Oct 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very bad property ##### Chetan Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Wally 25 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Amenities The dorm room was fine. \*\*\* Because there are no amenities. Good value though. My issue was the parking area which I think is owned by Morrisons. That area was filthy and reflected badly in the accommodation and had been so had been for some time. The accommodation is fine though. ##### Wally Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Ida 20 Jul 2025 Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff is untrustworthy and unhelpful. They will not take responsibility for thievery among their staff. My partner forgot their birkenstock sandals in the room, we called less than 6 hours later to ask them to keep them for us so we could come pick them up, however, they allegedly could not find the sandals and they were mysteriously gone. When confronted about this, they refused to take any sense of accountability. SHAME. I've now also read other reviews with people having the same experience, so there seems to be an untrustworthy person among their staff and the rest just covering for them. I warn all travellers considering staying at this accommodation to find other places to stay because you are bound to have something stolen from you. ##### Ida Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### sean 6 Aug 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### The worst Pictures totally deceptive, tiny dorm room, broken charger outlets, broken radiator blasting heat in July. Wrong office hours posted on ad. Left after an hour and had to book a different hotel for $700 more ##### sean Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller 2 Aug 2024 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Disappointing The Receptionist was welcoming and friendly. The room was unsuitable as noisy, busy road noise. I had made a request for a quiet room at booking stage. The Receptionist, when I advised her, kindly apologised and advised the hostel was fully booked, therefore could not be allocated another room. Noise as well from next door guests. Fire alarm set off twice in the middle of the night. There was a bad smell in the room, tried and ventilate while opening room yet traffic made it far too noisy. Smell remained. Shower was ok, warm and water pressure good. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Zoe 19 Jul 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I reserved and paid for this hotel prior to leaving the states, and I received a normal confirmation email advising of my check-in and check-out times. Nowhere was it indicated that the facility would not be open on the weekends or that a passcode was required to access the building. My husband and I arrived in Edinburgh, Scotland on Sunday to find a sign on the door of this hotel indicating they weren't open. We were literally stranded and spent two hours of our precious time in Edinburgh searching for a new hotel. Why was the access code not included in the confirmation email? A little communication on the part of this facility could have made for a great stay. Unless you are psychic, I'd avoid these lodgings and opt for something dependable. ##### Zoe Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jane 8 Aug 2024 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Room comfort #### A very basic stay This was a student room and as such was small with a very small double bed pushed against the wall. If a couple, whoever was wallside would have to either climb over the other, or slither to the end of the bed to get out. The bed was incredibly hard and uncomfortable. There was no bin, either in the room or more importantly, in the shower room which is very poor for disposable of sanitary products, which would have to be put in the bin in the conmunal kitchen area at the end of the hall. The kettle etc were in the kitchen area which was fairly clean though the bin was full of takeaway wrappers and there was a mouldy naan bread left on the side. The shower room was ok (apart from the lack of bin) with a good shower. Our neighbour was obviously a student who turned up about 2am both mornings. It was just a base for us visiting family, but not suitable for anyone staying longer. There are apartments there apparently too which I'm sure are better. There is onroad parking nearby. The reception staff were lovely. ##### Jane Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### farhad 11 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities We stayed here for one night. We were a bit concerned about its average rating, but everything turned out fine — very clean and tidy. The room’s furnishings were new and met the basic needs without being excessive. The same goes for the bathroom, though unfortunately, there was no shampoo! The bathroom is small, and the bed size is relatively limited for two people, but the bed was comfortable, and overall, everything was good. The accommodation is located a short distance from the sea but is very quiet and isolated. Fortunately, there is a large supermarket nearby, as well as a bus station. ##### farhad Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Valeria Patricia 8 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excelente opción para hospedarse, en Morrisons puede comprarse alimentos, parada de camión muy cerca que lleva directo al centro de la ciudad. Habitación y baño limpio. ##### Valeria Patricia Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Saurabh 6 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was an excellent stay. If I ll be visiting again then I ll definitely stay here again. Quite clean and well maintained. Staff is super friendly. The best part? The bus stand is exactly outside the residence which takes you straight to city center. ##### Saurabh Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Helge 5 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Enkel standard, langt fra sentrum. Studenthjem med enkel standard, langt fra sentrum. resepsjonisten gjorde et poeng av at ingen fikk sjekke inn før kl. 15 uansett om rommene var klare eller ikke. Veldig lite bad og smal seng trekker ned. Uaktuelt å bruke igjen. ##### Helge Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Frank 27 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This was fine for a night. it is student accommodation and very reasonable. The staff was friendly and helpful. Amenities are soewhat. basic, but what would you expect? despite that, we were very happy with it. The bed was a bit small for 2 people (we are used to a bigger bed) but it wasnt disastrous. worst was perhaps that it was against the wall so i had to climb in from the bottom! The kitchen was clean, and we were able to use it for our breakfast - everything worked fine. Tip for others: you CAN park in the Morrison's car park. Make sure you drive up to the top level, and you can unload right in front of the accommodation's back door. You can park there overnight, if you access the app RingGo, id 682383, and pay for it. Costs around £4. Bus connection to town centre is also fine. 30 mins or so, busses quite frequent. ##### Frank Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Kim 21 Jul 2025 Wenn eine Pension erst für Personen mit 18+ verfügbar ist, sollte man das auch DEUTLICH Kennzeichen! Wenn ich abgebe, dass ich als Erwachsene mit Kind reise, ist die Wahrscheinlichkeit doch recht hoch, dass dieses Kind unter 18 ist! Kosten, die einfach weg sind und wir mussten uns dann spontan etwas neues suchen. ##### Kim Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Marick 19 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness #### Un ensemble convenable La chambre était convenable, petite mais propre. C' est loin du centre mais très bien desservi. L'isolation phonique n'est pas au point. ##### Marick Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Shamini 17 Jul 2025 Liked: Staff & service Stay was fine, as would be expected of student accommodation. Shower was not great. Hairs in the bed. ##### Shamini Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Anthonia 16 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Amenities Ok basic Clean easy access ##### Anthonia Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Reinert 14 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Greit med noen mangler Det manglet stol til skrivebord, hengere til klær i klesskapet og dobbeltsengen var 120 cm ikke 150. Rommet var også plaget av støy fra bilvei. Kjøkkenet var utrustet greit med nødvendig utstyr for matlaging. ##### Reinert Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 10 Jul 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Basic but bearable Basic accommodation which is aimed for students. Room was very basic but adequately clean. Small double bed. Communal kitchen wasn't clean. All doors tended to slam closed which was noisy. On the upside, it's cheap and the shower worked fine ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Jolie 22 Sept 2024 hard to locate. ##### Jolie Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mo 20 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities H ##### Mo Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Novotel Edinburgh Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Novotel-Edinburgh-Centre.h982662.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Edinburgh Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Edinburgh-Airport.h520429.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Edinburgh.h15710648.Hotel-Information) > > [Edinburgh Marriott Hotel Holyrood](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Macdonald-Holyrood-Hotel-And-Spa.h546065.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Blu Hotel, Edinburgh City Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel.h4270.Hotel-Information) > > [Malmaison Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Malmaison-Edinburgh.h664615.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Edinburgh by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Edinburgh.h3516.Hotel-Information) > > [The Balmoral Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Balmoral-Hotel.h9339.Hotel-Information) > > [Old Town Chambers, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Cheval-Old-Town-Chambers.h6175181.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel Edinburgh Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Novotel-Edinburgh-Park.h1781324.Hotel-Information) > > [Britannia Hotel Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Britannia-Hotel-Edinburgh.h4533.Hotel-Information) > > [Apex Grassmarket Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Apex-Grassmarket-Hotel.h62750.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Ibis-Edinburgh-Centre-South-Bridge-Royal-Mile.h6793484.Hotel-Information) > > [Fingal - A Luxury Floating Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Fingal.h38753319.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Grand Hotel & Spa, Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Sheraton-Grand-Hotel-Spa.h15554.Hotel-Information) > > [Village Hotel Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Village-Hotel-Edinburgh.h9131632.Hotel-Information) > > [Virgin Hotels Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Virgin-Hotels-Edinburgh.h74635444.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Edinburgh City Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Edinburgh-City-Centre.h518686.Hotel-Information) > > [Apex Waterloo Place Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Apex-Waterloo-Place-Hotel.h2278092.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Edinburgh Carlton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Hilton-Edinburgh-Carlton.h1648.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Hotel Edinburgh Haymarket](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Leonardo-Royal-Edinburgh-Haymarket.h4035314.Hotel-Information) > > [The Scotsman Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Scotsman-Hotel.h570820.Hotel-Information) > > [Moxy Edinburgh Fountainbridge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Moxy-Edinburgh-Fountainbridge.h64450784.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Edinburgh Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Edinburgh-Airport.h84014.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express - Edinburgh City Centre by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Edinburgh-City-Centre.h1088215.Hotel-Information) > > [The Caledonian Edinburgh, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Caledonian-Edinburgh.h4198.Hotel-Information) > > [YOTEL Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-YOTEL-Edinburgh.h36667881.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Edinburgh-Marriott-Hotel.h873944.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Edinburgh West End](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Edinburgh-West-End.h19288210.Hotel-Information)
