The property was well below average in presentation. The condition of the room was not good, lamps didnt work, one of the beds wasn't level. The shower was complicated to use with no written instructions on how to start the shower (it was a switch outside the bathroom, not labelled). The walls were so thin we were kept up all night by the neighbouring rooms. Floors were dirty. Heating was difficult to control and there was a mouldy smell coming from the bathroom. Check in was complicated, requiring us to contact them 48 hours prior, which we did not realise. Then when we tried to contact, nobody answered the phone. When we finally got an answer, they hung up on us twice. Very stressful thinking we'd have to sleep in the car with 2 toddlers.

Got to the room at midnight and left at 1am when we discovered the room was infested with bed bugs. Absolutely disgusting. Had to wake up our young daughter and drive two and a half hours to the nearest available accommodation. Never seen anything like it.

Had a pleasant stay, self-check in worked great. Room was spacious, and shower was hot. Close to downtown and great pubs and coffee shops. I see reviews whinging about dust in the corners or some dirt here or there. Its an old place. Its a place to sleep and shower. Would stay again.

Perfect for the Fringe with friends
I was a little apprehensive after reading some of these reviews but have to say our stay in room 11 was brilliant. Instructions for check-in and accessing our key was clear and the process was very straightforward. Yes, the rooms are pretty basic and some of the carpets have seen better days but the guesthouse is outstandingly good value for room-sharers in peak season August. Our beds were comfortable, sheets and towels were clean, and there were no issues with the ensuite bathroom. There are some really nice cafes within a 10 minute walk and it's in a good spot for buses and trams.The only downside for us was the lack of an elevator and left luggage facilities.

Disappointing
My family wanted a hotel to stay in but there were none left in town as all hotel is fully booked in edinburgh then we came across this hotel. The location is convenient and right in front of a park. Check in is smooth. But we went in then when we went to the toilet, the tap has no cold water in it. The bath shower is noisy and water pressure is not enough . The tv was not working well so we can't even see the screen from time to time. The bed gave me back pain. There was only little bit of service. They do not change bedsheet.

The hotel would be ok, and a good offer for the price, if it had not serious plumbing problems. The water pressure on the cold water is so low that sometimes no water comes in the sink (strangely, hot water always comes), the toilet reservoir fills so slowly that when several people need to use the toilet consecutively, only the last one should flush, and the shower never worked. a week without shower, and a wash basin that has occasionally no water, are really a problem. Apart from that, the hotel is located across from a park, bus stations for several lines to the city are close by, shopping and restaurants are close by,, so the location is good, the rooms were clean, it could be a quite good hotel but for the problem with the plumbing. I hope they manage to get that repaired.

Overall a good value. The room wasn’t in the best shape and the property is hard to navigate with luggage. No A/C so room was very hot unless window wide open. Our roll down shade was broken so we couldn’t use window very well. The location is good and convenient for bus and tram and seaside and parks and restaurants. Common spaces were not as advertised and bathroom was less than hoped.

The mold on the bathroom ceiling was unpleasant and smelled bad. Mold spores can be dangerous so we tried not to disturb them. My kids’s feet turned black from the floors. What can I say. It was a late notice booking. On the bright side, the location is great and near the bus line!
