Good 4 night stay depite booking problems
Pros:

Attached to Toby Carvery making breakfast end evening meal easy, Staff more than helpful always spoke with us how was our day , went out of their way to help. Room tidy and acceptable although shower was a large square with sliding doors very small for larger person to get in and turn around.

Cons:

This was a booking for 3 people 3 rooms 4 nights. Having paid extra to cancel near the time if required , paid deposit and called Innkeepers to ensure 2 disabled rooms on ground floor as no lift. This was sorted fine. A week or so later i was emailed about my group booking and had to complete a contract and sign to responsible for damage. This had to be returned at once or booking would be cancelled. I then had to pay 10% deposit by return despite paying the higher price on line secured by credit card. I was then told i had to pay in full xxx days before despite my booking with booking .com I was very unhappy at the way i was treated as this was contrary to how i had booked and even the lady i called at innkeepers did not mention it was a group booking. Apparently a group booking is more than 5 room nights in total for more than one room . I had 12 as it was 3 rooms for 4 . When booked at booking.com it did mention any of this in booking process.

Pros:

Loved the fact there is a bus stop out the front so it is so easy and cheap to get into Edinburgh without any fuss. We ate at the carvery every night as the food is delicious and very well priced. Being gluten free wasn't a problem. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Bien, repetiría porque la ubicación y el precio están muy bien.
Pros:

La ubicación es muy cómoda, tienes buses en la puerta que te llevan directos al centro en 20 min. Tienes otra parada que va directa al aeropuerto con el bus 100 en 10 minutos. Además estás en un barrio de casas, no es zona turística, por lo que te adentras un poco más en la vida de allí.

Cons:

La limpieza es un punto a mejorar. Había pelos por el suelo y polvo cuando entramos. Pero es verdad que nos hicieron la cama y nos cambiaban las toallas todos los días.

Pros:

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Toby Carvery Edinburgh. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful with everything we needed.
The location is perfect it is close to absolutely everything and offers great access to the city center. Getting around was incredibly easy, making it the perfect base for exploring Edinburgh. The rooms were comfortable, and having the restaurant right there was a huge bonus for a great meal.
We had a fantastic experience and would definitely stay here again!

Handige plek om te overnachten.
Pros:

Ruime badkamer met een goede douche. Goede matrassen. Veel parkeergelegenheid. Bushalte voor de deur met meerdere lijnen naar het centrum.

Cons:

Heel kleine kamer, niet eens plek om je koffer open te maken. Dat moest op bed. Uitpakken kon niet want er waren enkel een paar kleerhangers voor de jassen. Matig ontbijt. Voor die prijs verwacht je geen slappe voorverpakte croissants.

Cute little stay at the inn
Pros:

Cosy stay just outside Edinburgh, it’s so easy to get into town and it’s nice having toby carvery just downstairs. Better value than central Edinburgh. It’s also accessible easily by bus from the airport. Ideal for what I needed.

A pleasant stay.
Pros:

The location is very good, right on the main road, with a bus stop directly in front of the hotel. It’s not right in the city center, but I actually liked that, as getting to the center is very easy. The hotel also has its own restaurant, which is a big plus. The food is delicious, and the overall atmosphere is very pleasant and welcoming.

The staff are also wonderful, especially the ladies working in the restaurant. They made me feel right at home. If I visit Edinburgh again, I will definitely consider staying here again!
