ExcellentAug. 201510.0
great place, especially during Fringe
We stayed in one of the small rooms. It was indeed small, but extremely well designed and comfortable. It was surprisingly quiet for all of the Fringe mayhem. The shower was the best hotel shower of any hotel I have ever stayed in. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We love this place and will stay here again.

OkayJul. 20104.3
The location was excellent for access to the heart of Edinburgh but is in a very seedy and grimy area of town.
The entrance to the hotel is through the beer garden of a raucous pub-nightclub so expect to weave your way through beer-swilling drunken crowds on hens and stags nights if you stay on a weekend. Rooms are spacious and well equipped. But the blinds in our room were broken or removed and there seems to be no maintenance carried out.

“Great location, a little loud at night but that's to be expected since there are bars right next to it.”
