Easy regular transport links to city centre. No complaints based on the price oft he stays. ##### Stephen Stayed 2 nights in Jul 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 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mia 7 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Bare-bones and basic but clean and afforable. The access to a shared kitchen is great. The wifi is strong, the rooms are exactly what you would expect from a dorm. The staff were kind and friendly. Good access to the buses and to the grocery store nearby. ##### Mia Stayed 4 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 ### 10/10 Excellent #### GILLIAN 10 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Good Find Basic, spotless accommodation with Morrison next to you for cheap parking and any provisions. Stayed for a concert during Edinburghs busy time (when it’s it not) however prices for hotels are normally hiked up! But we managed to get it at a decent rate. ##### GILLIAN Stayed 1 night in Aug 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 #### 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 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Giulia 16 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I've appreciate the organisation, the kindness and the social space of that place! ##### Giulia Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 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 ### 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 ### 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 ### 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 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 21 Jul 2024 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort Disliked: Cleanliness Good connections to Edinburgh if you are not staying in the room, it is cheap. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Olha 15 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness It was a calm and clean place with basic amenities. Thank you. ##### Olha Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Viv 11 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Slightly out of the centre of the city but great value. Tidy, clean and room more than adequate. Right next door to supermarket and cafe. Close to buses into the city. Lovely promenade by the water 5 mins from residence - great for a walk or run. The late check in is a bit if a hassle but probably reflects the late check out at 11am. However it woukd have been good to have had a safe place to store bags while we waited for rhe room to be available. The room also needs a rubbish bin (noted tgst previous reviews have said the same thing). Its great that uni accomodation is available in the summer when students away. Makes it affirdable for tourists especially during festivals. Overall, very happy with our stay ##### Viv Stayed 1 night in Aug 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 ### 8/10 Good #### Kwai 24 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Room comfort #### Value for the money Value for the money. Very convenient to the seashore and several bus routes to the city center and signposts. The only complaint would be the small size of the bed for 2 persons and very soft pillows (only 1 for each person) ##### Kwai Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David 17 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A nice stay Actually a very nice stay. The room was comfortable and we had access to a shared kitchen and common room. It was better than we were expecting. The staff were friendly and helpful. It is next to a Morrisons supermarket with a good cafe (Scottish breakfast is very nice). The bus stop outside gets you into the city centre in around 20 mins. It was exceptional value during the fringe! ##### David Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mohammad 18 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Good ##### Mohammad Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John 8 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The college is extremely well run,clean &tidy as are the rooms.Staff are very helpfull and on the ball..Transport to the city is 2mins from front of college,every 15mins..beds are cumfie guaranteed good night sleep.. ##### John Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mo 20 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities H ##### Mo Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cheung 19 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort i do not know the room was so warm. ##### Cheung Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Jolie 22 Sept 2024 hard to locate. ##### Jolie Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Prasanta 18 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities I suggest few tea bags, cpffee sachets/capsules should be kept in the kitchen area. ##### Prasanta Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Karrie 13 Aug 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Not with the money Staff was generally unhelpful and couldn’t answer. Basic questions about the facility. There was a community room that they did not tell us about so we were unable to use it. The room was uncomfortable and dirty, the bed mattress was extremely old and uncomfortable. The shower had mold, the drain was plugged up and the shelf in the bathroom was broken and unusable. The overhead sewer piping in the parking area near our car was leaking raw sewage from the bottom of the building. We wish we had spent a little more and stayed somewhere else. ##### Karrie Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [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) ---
