We were the first costumers after opening. Normally this is a longterm rental student home, but it was excellent for one night to visit the town. Very nice staff at the reception.

Good stay and affordable price. Quick bus ride or easy walk into the center of town. Request a room away from one of the access points as it could be noisy at night as people were locking or unlocking the access door. Bathroom could have been slightly better maintained. Hotel unfortunately uses single use plastics for their toiletries.

Overall very good service, cleaning was very good, but few improvements on the way. No mat out of shower makes a mess in the room. The bed is actually very small for two, but ok if tou looking for A budget solution.

Don’t count on bag storage. And I think this is run by volunteer students. It’s a bit chaotic and disorganized. In all fairness, it is new. I needed bag storage as offered, but they didn’t, so I carried my 20kg bag only to get the same room the next day on a 3 day stay.

I booked 3 nights here with anticipation of luggage storage. Luggage storage was restricted and not as advertised. The staff was not accommodating. I had to check out, carry 20kg of luggage to a bag check across town because there was nothing suitable locally. I believe the place to be run by students that can’t make decisions and don’t understand hospitality. It was a relatively small ask, but a massive inconvenience to me. I found out day 2, so lost an afternoon looking around for some assistance. It was stressful. This site finally got me a supervisor who offered a solution, but I spent 2-3 hours online and walking to find something local to help, plus nearly 2 hours with customer service. I was physically sick with how stressful it was.

Plassen og rommene var utmerket. Personalet var og hyggelige og hjelpsomme, men det var litt vekke i fra alt. Var 10 minutter gange fra nærmeste dagligvare butikk og 23 - 25 minutter fra Edinburgh sentrum. Gikk greit når det var tørt på bakken, men når det regnet så ble det ektremt glatt på fortauene og man måtte regne med å legge på en 10 minutter ekstra til sentrum

Ótimo custo benefício. Edimburgo é uma cidade com hospedagens caras e essa foi uma que encontrei com menor preço e com quartos limpos, móveis novos e próximo a ponto de ônibus. A única coisa que incomodou foi o barulho de portas ao amanhecer. Mas para quem vai ficar poucos dias vale a pena. Funcionários muito atenciosos. Tem um espaço de cozinha comunitária que possui fogão, geladeira e utensílios.

Saçma sapan bir online chekin süreçleri var saatlerce insanlar onunla uğraştı. Erken vardık baliz bırakmak istedik para aldılar tam bi skandal. Odada duş için sabun ve havluyu bile parayla vermek istiyolar. Old town tarafına yürüyerek ulaşmakta sorun yaşamadık çok yakın denemez ama fiyatına göre kabul edilebilirdi. Odalar tertemiz ve büyüklüğü yeterliydi manzarası güzeldi. Ama bize hiç bi konuda yardımcı olamadılar havlu ve çanta bırakmaya para almayı hiç bir yurt dışı seyahatimde yaşamamıştım.
