We have stayed in the family room with two children. They had two beds next to the 2 person bed. It was clean and basic but good. There is a good bus connection to the center or you can walk to it through the park. The staff was really nice and the food is good.

We have a few complaints about our stay. The room was dirty, with lots of dust, cobwebs, and a dirty toilet. I ordered room service only once in four nights, and it wasn't very good. The positives include the comfortable bed and the friendly and helpful staff.

We had a pleasant stay. The room was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a short visit. It's a simple, no-frills place with basic amenities. Sound proofinf isn't that fantastic. We had some inconsiderate neighbours. The breakfast was good, with a nice selection to start the day. Continental buffet breakfast set up with cooked english breakfast available on demand. The location is a little further out from the city centre if you plan to walk. That said, outside the front is a bus stop for the No.44 bus, which was convenient. Ample reasonable paid parking for guests. A disappointment was that the restaurant is only opened for breakfast and not dinner. There are limited choice of restaurants nearby. You will need to get into the city, nearby Portobello or Duddingston. The bar operating hours also varies. It is generally not opened at night. There is also no coming lounge area to sit and have a chat. One thing worth noting for international travellers is that air conditioning isn't a standard amenity in many UK hotels, so it's always worth checking before you book if that's important to you. A fan would have been appreciated during the warmer weather. Also, don't assume there will be a bar fridge in the room, as refrigerators are not commonly provided either. Overall, if you're looking for a clean, comfortable, and affordable place to stay without the extras, this is a solid choice.

If you’re planning on visiting the Royal Mile or surrounding area don’t book here. It’s too far from anything. Taxi will be £14 at least. There’s a restaurant in the hotel, which was good, but that’s your only option. The beds were comfy. Our room heater didn’t work so they brought us a portable heater that took the chill off. The shower was nice and hot but the tub was really tall. If you have any mobility issues it’s hard to get in and out. And it’s slippery. Front desk staff tried very hard to make us happy. We wouldn’t stay there again because of the location.
