    Cost - although I realised it was during the festival but cost don’t match the offer of the hotel No fridge in the room - for the price I would have expected this Noise of delivery vans outside in car park from 6am despite being on top floor so could leave window open even though it was hot

    Location was great for the festival - the rooms were clean and beds comfortable. The staff were friendly and breakfast was great

    The price! We were finishing our 2 weeks road trip in Edinburgh. We appreciate it was in August during the fringe but “up charge” was the most expensive 325 pounds for one night.

    Very welcoming staff. Clean room and premises. Good location.

    The extortionate price they charged for the room due to the Fringe, Oasis and the Tattoo all being in at the same time. £390 for a room that would be work £80 at best any other time of the year.

    Very central and accessible if you are in Edinburgh for the Fringe

    The area is kind of cheap-touristy. Price per night is very high, however, understandable with Fringe and other festivals going on at the same time in August.

    Clean and comfortable room (even though it’s quite small). Friendly staff. Closely located to Arthur’s Seat, which is a great hike to a beautiful view over the city.

    The hotel was in a great location in central Edinburgh, but on a quiet street. The room was fairly small but perfect for just one my night stay, perhaps not for an extended stay. It was spotlessly clean and the shower was excellent. I didn’t like the location of the coffee making facilities right next to the bed and pillow. It was a bit awkward making coffee in the morning. The staff were very friendly and attentive. I would absolutely stay here again. Only negative was the price. I stayed during the festival, so it was very expensive.

    Having to carry heavy bags up 2 stories was hard. Given it is student accommodation in non-Summer that is understandable. It was incredibly expensive for what it was but Edinburgh in this week was extortionate - probably due to the Tattoo. We had no choice as our already booked accommodation had shut down with no notice.

    Was close to Old Town and most attractions in Edinburgh. It was comfortable and airy. It was easy to find.

    We were located on the fourth floor and no elevator. The fourth floor was also very warm and we only had a skylight for a window. I would have liked a proper window that we could fully open for some air. Not a huge deal but would have been nice. Luckily there was a small fan available. Only a partial door in the shower so we found that despite us trying to angle the shower head away, water ended up all over the floor.

    Fantastic location and staff. They went above and beyond to help us out upon arrival. Perfectly located and close to everything!! Bed was comfortable and room was a good size for two people.

    The room was a little cramped and if you need the window open, you will probably hear truck deliveries in the back of the hotel.

    This hotel had a great breakfast and friendly, knowledgeable staff. The hotel overall was clean and nicely decorated. The bathroom was pretty nice with a fan, shower, and a good space.

    No lift, climbing 3 flights of stairs after a long day exploring. Would like if there was a lounge area to relax as bedroom was too small for relaxing in evening.

    Breakfast was very good, with lots of choice, the pancake machine a lovely treat. Friendly staff.

    Really really tiny room. Tiny sink in the bathroom. Lack of a/c, which mattered in the heat wave. Coffee in the lobby not free unlike many other hotels. For the price I paid, I expected a little more.

    Great location. Large comfy bed. Friendly and helpful staff.
