I liked the access code system for getting into your room, very good for flexibility. Nice room and very clean. However, I found the staff difficult to contact & the mattress was like a hammock, needs replacing.

2 day stay in Leith Place Hotel
Absolutely tiny room. Window looked out to patio area where people sat...so curtains had to be closed all the time, as they could see in. Room located by front door, so the noise was constant with peolple banging the door on exit or entry. Toilet had broken flush. Area in hallway outside room was used by people to meet up, and again, noise was constant. The sink in bathroom was so small, it was difficult to refill the kettle. The room was clean, which was good, but all in all we had a miserable stay. Would definitely not stay here again.

This hotel was very disappointing. When we arrived, the toilet in our room was stained and dirty, the shower curtains were moldy, and the towels were stained. We went to use the kettle and found it full of moldy teabags, and upon seeking assistance at the front desk for a new kettle, found the desk unstaffed. After ringing the bell and calling, we were still unable to reach anyone so we were not able to use the kettle or have assistance with anything during our stay. We stayed for three nights and our room was never cleaned and towels were never replaced. Our room was advertised as sleeping three but no extra blankets were provided for the futon, and once again, when we seeked assistance for extra towels and blankets we were not able to reach anyone. Overall, it seemed as if our room had not been thoroughly checked or cleaned before our stay and we were not provided with any opportunities to speak to staff.
