Could not have asked for any better accommodation for the price. I need a self catering apartment to help me prepare for the Edinburgh Marathon and this room had everything. Very happy with the check-in. Definitely use this hotel again.

Adequate and comfortable room, right off the Royal Mile. It’s worth noting that, however, that although breakfast is advertised as an optional add-on, there’s no restaurant on-site. Instead, a small variety of items are left in the room for you to choose from during your stay.

On the property website they advertise secure luggage storage but it is not secure and they ask you to sign an indemnity to boot. If you arrive before three check in time there are only three seats in the ‘lobby’ and limited luggage room . Great location close to Holyrood Palace.

The place was alright for the price you pay, but it was definitely showing some wear and tear. Our main significant issue was the noise from the air conditioning unit clunking and banging through the night, to the point where we had to turn it off despite the heatwave. Check-in/check-out was fine. Probably wouldn’t stay again for the sleep issues. Location was alright.

We stayed at the hotel for 2 nights. The hotel kept our luggage which was helpful. Three of us got stuck in the elevator as it was having issues and the repair technician informed us it is not an adequate elevator for the property. After this incident only two people were allowed to ride the elevators at any one time. The bathtub in the main bathroom is dangerously slippery. They need grip pads to preventing slipping and falling. Kitchen had all the essentials and was well equiped. Nice little complimentary pkg there as well for indulging in. Fairly clean facility however, there was hair in the bath tub and beard stubble on the shelf below the mirror. All in alll not a bad stay.
