The small room was clean and neat. It was cute with a small bench area. The bathroom was like stepping into a space ship. We loved it.
Two bad things: no tissues - using thin toilet paper doesn't work and the bed side tables were a foot off the floor and tiny. Very inconvenient
Hotel perfectly suitable for a couple of days stay from a value perspective. Walkable and convenient to local dining and the sights. “Space pod” bathroom was different, shower water went everywhere.
Room was basic but good - everything worked well, but there was one slight problem - the bathroom 'pod' was quite noisy to use, i.e. the door operation was noisy, and also it was not possible to turn the bathroom light on without also lighting the main room. Hence when using the loo at night it inevitably also woke up my wife.
Breakfast was included and was excellent.
This hotel was clean, safe & quiet. The bathroom felt small like the ones on cruise ships, but not terrible. Friendly staff, filtered water in the lobby & great location to the main action in Edinburgh
Great dependable clean hotel in an excellent location.

I’ve done a lot of traveling and have stayed in many hotels and this was by far the worst place I’ve stayed. First day the check in process was ridiculous. The girls at the front desk on 7/17 were awful. We were told we were too early for check in with an attitude and then she proceeded to very nicely check in everyone after us. The room was small which was fine but there was only one outlet plug for the entire room including bathroom which was very inconvenient. The mattress was basically a mattress pad on top of a box spring so it wasn’t the most comfortable. One of the days the towels were just rehung from the floor and on the first day one of the towels had pubic hairs on it. I cannot say much was cleaned each day.
All was well with the property except for the lack of outlets next to the bed, and the only chair was a flimsy plastic chair. Where is the second occupant supposed to sit?
Great location, clean room, small but didn't spend much time in the room anyways

The room was comfortable enough and excellently located.
However, there were a couple issues:
1. There is another Ibis hotel right around the corner from this one and it's almost inevitable to confuse the two at least once. It's also quite difficult to locate this particular one on google maps. It leads you to the back of the building instead of the entrance.
2. Most of the staff I encountered were very rude and not friendly. I went to get some food and drink at the restaurant (which was open and full of people, early evening) and the two men that worked there were very cold and unwelcoming. The caeser salad was also just not good. Then at the end when I was picking up my luggage from the storage, I had two bags but the man who stored them for me only gave me one number to take a photo of so I assumed it was one number for both bags. So when this woman was grabbing my bags and I explained the situation (and proved the second bag was mine) she insinuated that it was my fault for not taking a photo of the second number...even if that were the case (you can see in the photo the guy only showed one number) it's weird and rude to blame a guest for something like that that's an honest mistake. It was very off-putting.
Excellent location but rooms are expensive given the proximity to the Royal Mile. Meets basic needs of cleanliness, quietness and courteous and helpful staff.
