The place is well secured. Instructions were given prior checkin and managed to get on even we didn't find any staff upon arrival but that's fine as they gave a heads up on what to do. A nice place especially for those attending events near the Murrayfield stadium and also not too far walk to to the city centre.

Okay so my experience with this hotel was not particularly wonderful. The property is run down. The room was bare bones, basic furniture. The water situation was a nightmare: two out of our four nights we didn’t have hot water in the morning. The first time we were told to leave the water running and… 45 minutes and my husband going to find someone who worked there… again.. they sent two guys to our room who said it was a timer issue. On morning #1, my husband went to the laundromat for a load of laundry while I was in the bathtub. A staff member not only came into the room while the water was running, and while my phone had audio playing, but he barged into the bathroom where I was completely naked. Last but not least, this listing came up in the Free Parking search category in Expedia.. that’s not true. There is Zero parking near the building, they refer you to adjacent apartment complexes with tenant parking or nearby hotels. We had to pay 55 pounds to park in a nearby hotel lot. There is absolutely no way they didn’t realize I was in there. Will never stay at this property again. Contacted Expedia for a complaint.

Based on a 10 day stay. The building looks a little rough from the outside but the room was clean and bed was comfortable. Check in was done by text message over the phone. Pass code worked well. No issues. After 28 hours travelling we wanted to shower before going to eat. No hot water. This was an issue the whole time. Hot water was available in the mornings but not late after noon. The weather was hot the first week we were there. We walked a lot and when we came back to the hotel to clean up before we went out for supper/dinner we cold showered every time. Hot water every morning though, We did ask for a bedding change on day 6 but were told no by the only employee we saw the whole time there. This place is basically an Air B and B. This was an inexpensive place to stay, good neighbourhood area, good location to walk from, and bus stops to city central and the airport just outside . The train is a short walk down to Haymarket station. If you like to be independent and left alone this is the place for you. We would stay again.

Terrible service. On the day of arrival, we asked for the code to get in. The person running the business insisted that he had sent it to us and that we needed to check again. We reached out 4 different times before they relented and finally gave us the code. Fun fact! They did send the code after all; two days AFTER our stay . We enter the room and the first thought is that this place is NOT clean. Pro tip hotel owners; don't leave the previous guests booking information sitting around in plain view for your new guests to see, it makes it REALLY obvious you didn't do that great of a Of course, for our dessert course of this review, I gotta talk about the hot water. We very quickly realized that all the water was ice cold. So we asked the very easy question of - hey is there hot water? The person managing the building told us we needed to find a red switch or a string hanging from the ceiling. Apparently this hotel is an escape room now and you need to solve puzzles to get really basic stuff. So after some searching we realized that we had neither of those things in our room before the manager finally admitted that the hot water comes on when the heating. Only good thing about this place is location. But it isnt worth the annoynaces of dealing with management as lack of ammentities

Good location, bus stops right by the house from airport. Most if attractions are near by, the place could have been cleaner and stainless as there was a stain on my duvet but when I talked to the housekeeping she said it’s not dirty it’s just a stain that doesn’t go away otherwise it’s been washed. I asked for it to be replaced anyways but they didn’t replace it so it was little uncomfortable to have that on my conscious. Everything besides that was perfect such as location/self check in check out/breakfast in the morning was a nice touch. No shampoo or essential toiletries are given so you’re lucky if you bring your own otherwise you only have water to rinse yourself with some soap that didn’t seem like body wash and no shampoo/conditioner. Cleanliness could be worked on as well as providing essential toiletries (body wash/shampoo/conditioner) like other Hotels would also be nice.

Parking was not on-site had to walk 1/2 mile once a free street parking spot was found. The free breakfast might be free but wasn't there, when a staff member came out of his hiding place he said there was no staff and it was free, but nothing was there. Breakfast available from 8am to 10am We left at 9:40 without breakfast.

I like the area it was situated . Really nice and clean room . In the morning , the batteries of the outside door were on floor as if someone close the door too hard. We try to put it again but the lock was not opening . So we left earlier because it would not have been possible to return in the hotel .

Excellent stay
Lovely, clean room & bathroom with ample amenities for our short stay. Complimentary cold breakfast had plenty choice and was an added bonus. Only minor issue was the room was extremely hot but we simply turned down the radiators. Excellent location for walking into the heart of Edinburgh.

Since its my 1st time to have found a hotel that’s not big w/ not that much staffs, It was indeed such an experience for me. The guy who works for this clean & quaint hotel is, very nice & helpful & accomodating. He has made my stay quite memorable. I think, I’m okay to recommend this hotel for future reference.

Basic and budget
Stayed in room 15. Rooms need updating, things were falling apart and general wear and tear is not repaired. Mattress was not comfortable and shower being an electric power shower meant water was tempermental, being scorching hot or cold and issues with the water pressure. YH There was as an issue with checking in as hadnt been sent my code to open the lock box to get key to the room, this meant having to ring customer service. Continential Breakfast is ok pastries, coffee, fruit juice if you are not gluten free as no gluten free options available despite making a request months prior to our visit so had to bring my own. Location is great, about 1 mile walk into the centre of Edinburgh. No parking at location but parking about 0.3 miles away. No member of staff seen except at breakfast. Little changes could make this place so much better

Avoid…you’ve been warned
Simply the worst hotel experience we’ve had in years. There’s no staff, therefore no service. It’s at best a self service hostel, which is fine if that’s what you want, but not if you’re paying hotel prices for hostel service. We didn’t get sent any information on how to access the hotel so we had to wait for another guest to open the door and then we managed to speak to someone on the unmanned reception phone who eventually gave us the code to access our room key. We couldn’t work out how to use the digital lock on the front door of the hotel so I had to climb through an open window twice to get in and open the door from the inside. We spoke to two other guests and they had exactly the same experience as us and also had to climb through the window. The housekeeping is ridiculous as our beds weren’t made and towels weren’t changed despite our bin being emptied, so someone had been. It was really hot as well and there was no fan and obviously no one to ask if we could borrow one. If you stay here and have a poor experience….don’t say you haven’t been warned!!!
