Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests appreciated the great location of the hotel, which is conveniently close to tram stations and within walking distance of key attractions in Edinburgh. However, numerous complaints highlighted issues with service, particularly regarding rude staff and lack of basic amenities such as air conditioning and elevators. The cleanliness of the hotel received positive remarks, though some reviews noted the rooms were small and the value for money was questionable. Breakfast received mixed feelings, providing a decent selection but ran out of items on occasion.

Pros (+) Room was clean and well presented, service was excellent all easy and not a problem, perfect location short walk from everything you need including a 24 hour car park
Cons (-) Small things like the shower base wasn’t grippy and I nearly slipped and hurt myself, plus the room was really warm being in the basement but the skylight shut itself at night leaving the room very hot even with the heating off
