Room was clean and mostly comfortable. A fan would have been nice as it was stuffy. The stairs are a bit difficult to manage with luggage. Shops and restaurants are close by which is convenient. You don’t really interact with staff. There is a box with instructions for getting your keys and then instructions on where to leave them.

I like the location , that was very convenient and quiet . It was easy to get to attractions by foot and transportation. The room was nice, but couldn’t open the windows. Also, it was on the top floor, that was fine with me, but would be difficult to get up and down with luggage for elderly persons. I don’t like the fact ,that it was no person at the desk to communicate with. I had problems with entering the hotel and confused with the codes and keys using. I don’t remember seeing that in description before I booked the hotel, otherwise I would not buy it.

Not that easy to get in. We had issues with the code and the door key broke in half!. But staff on phone were very helpful. In that area having a car is an issue Q park is close, there is no loading zone and parking attendants move you on quickly if you park in permit zones. Also note there is no elevator. It is a good location for everything , Royal Mile and castle close.

Going in, we knew we were not going to a 5-star resort. However, the listing boasts a whole bunch of restaurants “on-site” while there are none. For sure, there is a ton of restaurants and bars at proximity - we went for breakfast 4 days in a row to 4 different places that were all within 3-minute walk. Supper also presented a challenge of choice (too many to choose from in the neighborhood), but still… these were not on-site. The hotel itself is very charming with its look from another era - creaking floors, low handrails, high ceilings, wide trims, etc. Our showers leaked on the floor if the shower head was directed at the wall, and the shower head’s hose leaked also, it could not be redirected and its holder was cracked - a bit disappointing since a fix would only be a few pounds. This being said, with the hotel being a 10-minute walk from the train station and the Royal Mile, the location could not be better. In summary, if you are looking for an affordable pied-à-terre, where you will not spend too much time in the room, but want something close to the action, this hotel is an acceptable choice.

The contact-less check-in solution was excellent and the location is super central. However, I would not have booked this hotel if I had understood that the toilet and shower facilities were shared with other hotel guests. It was probably stated somewhere, but I did not see it so it is on me. But would for this reason not book again.

The location is great and the room was clean. I'm not sure what amenities there are; coffee and tea in the room maybe? There really is no staff. If you have a problem you can reach someone via the phone in the lobby but that only works on the time. This is a digital check in and operation.
