La ubicación inmejorable, a tan solo 15min del centro histórico de Edimburgo. Con respecto a su personal, muy amable, nos lo explicó todo nada más llegar.
Cogimos la suite, la cual calidad precio superó nuestras expectativas.
Lo único malo del alojamiento fue el colchón, creo que ya deberían de cambiarlo...
Convenient location very close to Haymarket Station. Budget friendly option for single night stay especially if you are transiting through. The wc fittings were new and well maintained. Minimal toiletries given ( A towel, hand towel and a soap).
Thr rooms are old and worn out. Most of the lights were not working on my room and ensuite. My room had no window which the reception staff specified upfront. Also they dont accept cards due to a temporary issue is what I was conveyed. I wont have preferred this, had I travelled with my family. For a single person on a budget I will consider it.
Nothing
It was a hostel and they sprayed perfume on all their sheets, pillowcases and towels to make it so nice but couldn’t breathe from the too much perfume
The size of the room ,it was massive i love it
The alarm going off at 6am but I know that had nothing to do with the staff at the hotel , apart from that I couldn't fault anything
Locatie. Tegenover station Haymarket en ca. 20 minuten wandelen naar Old Town.
Kamers zijn enorm verouderd. Badkamer is totaal versleten. Op het bed lagen lange donkere haren.
Bovendien ging midden in de nacht het brandalarm zonder reden af. De eerste keer duurde het ongeveer een kwartier voordat het probleem was opgelost.
La ubicación es espectacular. La cama era amplia y cómoda.
El baño no tenía puerta
The staff member who greeted us showed us to our room, rather than just telling us. The bed was very comfortable and the linen was lovely.
We didn't like that there wasn't a door to the en-suite, just a shower curtain to close it off from the rest of the room, which if you're on your own isn't the end of the world, but a bit different if you're a couple. The bed, although comfortable, squeaked on every movement.
A very cosy, clean and lovely hotel with a welcoming atmosphere. There was tea and coffee in the room, and the towels were of excellent quality!
We would especially like to thank the young man at reception who welcomed us and saw us off. He was so kind, polite and friendly. His warmth and care made our stay extra special and left us with a wonderful impression of the hotel. He truly made our holiday even better. Thank you so much!
20 mi Ute walk into town on a busy road so safe to walk home alone.
The carpet and furnishings were stained and felt grimy.
Had to pay by cash rather than card, that felt like a ploy to not pay the credit card fees rather than an actual issue with their payment system
The location was quite good for the centre of Edinburgh. I was able to check in a little earlier than planned. The bed was comfortable.
The room was basic which is fine but seems a bit expensive for what you get. A minor annoyance was no bedside lamp so you will have to use your phone light.
The two staff members we met were extremely helpful and friendly. The location is perfect when traveling to or from Haymarket. The bed was comfortable. The price was very good for Edinburgh and plenty of local shops, restaurants, pubs and cafes are within 5 minutes walk.
The decor is dated, and could do with an upgrade but if you're just looking for an inexpensive room in Edinburgh, then you can overlook this.
Very pricy regarding the quality and confort. Moist on the carpet and in the shower.
Everything that mattered was clean and comfortable. It is very basic. But a great value if all you need is a place to sleep and shower
J’avais peur en réservant vu les commentaires mais j’ai étais agréablement surprise
Proche du centre d’Edimbourg, un prix correcte pour la capitale
La chambre et les équipements étaient propres
Peut être un coup de rafraîchissement sur l’hôtel en général
I stayed a second time in this hotel, and the second time was even better. The receptionist was very nice. He made me feel welcomed and safe. The room was clean, with a beautiful view. The bathroom was clean. The shower was nice and hot. The location was prime, right in front of the train and bus station of Haymarket, 20 min away from the airport in bus. The room was quiet, and not on the ground floor, which I was happy about because i could leave the window open for a couple hours to get fresh air before turning on the heat. Then, I was able to turn on the heater and make the room nice and warm too. I don't think there were elevators, just stairs, so this might be a deterrent for some folks, but was not an issue for me. The view from the room was also lovely. This time, the bed was very comfortable, no noise when tossing or turning.
The window had a broken part of it covered with cardboard. Even though the room is quite high up, it would be best to fix it. Anybody going up there could break in easily by opening the window from that opening, not ideal.
