Lo esperado! La zona mejor comunicada y una zona tranquila.
Pros:

Sabíamos a dónde íbamos, a una habitación con baño compartido, tuvimos la suerte de no compartir baño, pero finalmente fue para nosotros. La zona había leído que era mala, pero para nada, un lugar que tiene varias líneas de autobuses a unos 10min andando, y hay un supermercado cerca también. A mí la zona me pareció tranquila, típica de las zonas alejadas del centro.

Cons:

La habitación me pareció un poco agobiante. Personalmente creo que el sofá de la habitación 2, no hace ningún papel pues está pegada a la cama, lo que hace que tengas que dar un salto para acostarte en ese lado. Por otro lado, el cabecero es de terciopelo, ideal para las alergias, cosa que pasé mala noche, pero bueno, las almohadas pueden ser más cómodas.
Realmente, era como lo esperaba y lo recomiendo si estáis de paso y cuadra en vuestro literario, nosotros solo estuvimos 2 noches y como digo, está genial y tiene lo suficiente, una cama, y un baño.

Good room for an unexpected last minute booking, comfortable and clean.
Pros:

Good location for the purpose of my visit, clean and comfortable room.

Cons:

An actual lock rather than a hook on the inside of the bedroom door would have been nice.
One of the spotlights in the bathroom is out and needs replacing.

Pros:

Fine

Cons:

No chrome cast remove and no cups for the kettle, had to try every lockbox to hunt for my key then try every key to hunt for my door before the letter responded.

Extremely disappointing
Pros:

The bed was comfortable

Cons:

We arrived and it took 20 mins to get in the property as the safe box had no access keys in it eventually the cleaner let us in. The security to the room was a 50 pence padlock and a 20 pence ring screw and hasp not adequate and did not feel comfortable leaving any valuables. The kettle did not boil the water for a cup of tea or coffee and the coffee that was supplied was stale and old, sugar was damp and there was only lemon tea bags, there was 2 x sachets of milk that had obviously been left there by someone when we asked the cleaner for more she informed us via a phone app translator that there was no more and offered us a small carton of milk that was 2 weeks out of date then disappeared and came back with soya milk.
The television will only work if you have Netflix on your phone as there are no standard channels on it.
After returning from being out for the evening the heating was not working and did not work for the remainder off our stay including no hot water to wash with.
The cleanliness of the room is not bad however there are apparent splats of blood on the back of the bathroom door and the towels are old and well used. In the main room the curtains and odd which is very strange and do not stop the draught coming through the window.
The property is very noisy due to the location of the lift but this cannot be blamed on the room however overall for the price that was paid was a real disappointment and spoiled the stay in Edinburgh and would recommend any further customers to seek alternative accommodation.
When I text the mobile number I was informed that all the information was on the website prior to booking and the heating was a result of an overnight fault so did not want to disturb us so blatantly lied to us as it was not working at 2100hrs. In relation to the other issues was not really interested and did not issue any form of apology but just stated that we had been informed about everything on the accommodation description.

Bad experience overall
Pros:

Highly recommend not booking this place.

Cons:

Collège dorm in an industrial area, unfriendly and rude host. We booked a room with a private bathroom which we didn’t get, the keys that were given to us unlock both rooms, so it’s very unsafe if you want to leave valuables in your room.

Pros:

Very lovely host that replies fast to messages.

Cons:

The room is not as nice as in the pictures. The door can only be locked with a metal hook. Tv doesnt work, closets are locked. There is no fridge just a woden box resembling a small closet. The matrace is extremely uncomfortable and probably very old. Its very expensive for whats its offering and you are in the apartment with other people where everything can be heard.
