It was cosy and the bed was comfy. The bathroom was spotless clean. Hot water shower was excellent. There was tea pot in the room. Loved it cause I’m a tea addict. A giant window made the room super bright.

The walls are paper thin I guess cause I could hear everything happening in the hall and the next door room. Interrupted my sleep many times as the next door guests slammed the bedroom door so many times. My pillow had multiple strands of hair on it, made me wonder if the pillow case was ever changed after the previous guest left.

Nice, clean room close to Leith where I was attending a kilt making course. It was odd having my bathroom across the hall from my room, but it was immaculate. I needed a room where I could do my homework and it was perfect for that. Very close to Leith walk , but located in a quiet location. I slept like a log and felt safe in the property.

The quality of the finishes were 'Dave down the M6'. It was so bad you had to imagine if the joiner had retrieved the materials from old transport pallets. Had anyone with any qualification in quality looked at this it would have laughed.

I was a little worried after seeing some of the other reviews, but it was actually completely fine and we had a really nice stay. The room was a lot cheaper than comparable rooms in Edinburgh in this location, so it is really good value for money to be honest. The room was clean enough. The bed was comfy. The bathroom and shower were also completely OK. For the low cost this is pretty decent value for money in a very expensive city. The only interaction with the staff was the man that welcomed us and he seemed friendly.

Only very small issues. Some of the things in the room/bathroom could use some work (e.g the paint on the walls etc). We had a separate bathroom, which is OK for the price, but not ideal). The lights next to the bed were also not the easiest to use. We could also have done with two keys, but I never asked so this is probably my fault not theirs. All of these things are small issues and completely fine given the cheap price and good location.

The hotel was clean, the staff was very polite, allowed us store our bags before we went about the city, the room was very clean and the bathroom was clean as well, the heating was very good, I liked the coziness of the room, the only thing was there wasn’t any fridge to put drinks and asides that I enjoyed my stay, might visit again

Quite small in space, no fridge to store anything, rug look really old, could use some new rugs.

It was good value for money, and a fairly safe room. I love that they upgraded me so I did not have to use the shared bathroom and got a separate one. Good water pressure in the shower and basic toiletries (shampoo and body wash). Accessible by public transport, and close to old town and Ocean Terminal / Royal Britannia.

Sink was too low so getting water from it for the kettle was difficult. Also, maybe better to get bottled / restaurant water during stay.

Great location just off Leith Walk. Simple but adequate facilities.

The lock on the front door was sticky with a key tricky to insert. Drainage from toilets throughout the building could be heard all through the night from other bedrooms. Although I am not particularly tall, I found the duvet was a bit short. Although there was free WiFi in the building, coverage didn't reach my room in the basement.

The shower was amazing, sadly we left in a rush in the morning but I would stay again and make sure I have time to enjoy the shower. Fantatsic location for using the Tram and lots of nice restaurants and coffee shops nearby

bedroom decor was a bit dated, but everything was clean and tidy

I liked the simplicity of my stay. It was comfortable, exactly what I needed for a one night stay.

It's just a small thing but in the room I was in the gap between the bottom of the door and the frame was quite noticeable and a lot of light came through from the corridor.

The place was great! The room lovely and in keeping with the old style of furniture etc. Good shower! Very good value for money and halfway between old town Edinburgh and Leith

The staff were pretty noisy outside our room at 8am but they were nice enough to let us drop our excess luggage into the property prior to check-in

Host was excellent. I was pleased as a regular user of budget hotels as they can be a little hit and miss. This property met all my hopes; clean, functional, pleasant with a host who clearly cares enough to make sure everything is right. The room looks f course is snug but well organised and spotlessly clean. An overall excellent experience.

All top notch.
