Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort
The room was of adequate size but for 2 people the beds where too small I’d say more of a queen size than double. Was the cheapest accommodation we could find during the fringe and in a good location for many of the acts.

Good enough

They are student digs, so naturally there's not much room, but there's enough for what you need. There are enough facilities on site, and it's central enough to be perfect for Fringe. Hot water went out on Saturday morning and it took until Tuesday to get fixed - but fixed it was. Plenty good enough for udget accommdation.

Kiln housing.

We didn’t have a top sheet or blanket when we arrived. The space was fine, a bit spartan but enough equipment for two. Closer to many of the events at the festival. Could use a bit of art on the walls. Drainage in the shower was poor. Courtyard was a bit noisy especially on a weekend night, if you know why fat I mean. Staff was great, friendly and helpful. I’d go there again but I’m not sure my partner would.

This is a university property, used during the summer as a hotel. The bed was great, the shower very good, and it is right next to the Royal Mile (an exit of the property is on the Royal Mile street). The only negative comment is there is no TV/fridge/coffee maker (all related to its normal function). The hot water stopped working at some point for a couple of days, and being a Festival weekend, it was hard to find someone to fix it; but the staff gave us *also* access to another room (in an older building, so it was not occupied) that had a working shower, which turned out to be very good solution.

Liked: Communication
The staff is very good, no complaints there. The rooms are designed for student housing so the beds are small, uncomfortable, the chairs are uncomfortable, the window is terrible as a result the rooms get stuffy and hot. (Probably not a concern most of the year) But it is student housing at a cheap cost so what does one expect really. The location is great.

It was nice to have a little kitchen area so that I could refigerate and prepare food if necessary. The only thing that was a little disconcerting was that you can't get OUT without pushing buttons or using the key card. My key card never worked on the card reader getting into the lobby, so if someone hadn't been in the lobby, I couldn't have gotten out. It made me feel a bit trapped. But everyone was very nice and helpful. Easy walk to the Royal Mile.

Everything was fine apart from one thing. All the doors bang very loudly unless you keep hold of them and allow them to close softly. Unfortunately people didn't do this, meaning you'd be woken up either late at night or extremely early. The accommodation needs to invest in some soft-close door closers.
