Very convenient location, good privacy for sleeping. Sleeping quarters was pretty hot and facilities had some decent wear and tear damage. Only one bathroom stall on our floor had lock on it. Decent place for the location, maintenance could be improves.

Staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. The pods were clean and well maintained. The common areas were very chill and offered a nice place to recharge (either devices, or yourself). I would highly recommend and will stay again if I ever go back!

This place is awesome! We stayed in the family room for four and it was comfortable, clean and spacious. Free pre-check in and post-check out luggage storage onsite. Great location right in the middle of the Royal Mile action, yet providing a quiet night’s rest. In room A/C a definite plus.
