Lovely, clean hotel with sizable rooms and an awesome shower. The area is pretty devoid of things to do it see, though it's Edingburgh - nothing is really far away.

The room was clean enough and the hotel was in a good location as there was a bus you could take into Edinburgh centre very close by. However the quiet time was not enforced and it was always loud after 10 pm and before 7am!

Very noisy with people having a loud verbal argument heard in room upstairs early morning which was disturding. Lots of drainage noise from shower above us as our room was in the basenent. Nice to have own bathroom which was clean. Not the kind of accommodation I would normally book but cheaper price. Comfortable bed and very small room. If you need somewhere to sleep close to bus stop this would be acceptable. Easy check in and out.

If you book through expedia you do not get to see clear photos of the general condition of this hotel ( i use the word hotel very loosely, better word hostel or bedsit ) The person on site was not helpful nor was there website. This was not value for money nor was it a pleasure. To sum up i felt like we we're on the set for rising damp
