The location was best, as we were visiting the Playhouse. Very noisy location, single glazed windows did not help this situation. Lay out of hotel pecuilar, we had to go up two flights of stairs and then go down the fire escape steps one flight, this may have improved if the lift actually worked. We were in family room, if you had very young children route to room would have been unbearable.

I liked the hotel: friendly staff, good service, tasty breakfest. Location is perfect - close to bus station (o problem with travelling to Glasgo or Stirling) and to the city center. Lift was out of work (it was big problem becouse I had heavy luggage). Furnishings are very poor, but it was ok for that price.

The location in Edinburgh is great, with a short walk to the castle and other downtown locations. The cost of the room was very low as well. Being on a major street, it was a bit noisy.

Good location, 10 minutes walk from Waverley Bridge. The price is also very attractive. The lift was broken and I had to get to the 3rd floor with heavy luggage. They are rather parsimomious with breakfast, I was served just one slice of bacon.

Very basic, but warm and clean. Room overlooking main road so quite noisy.

Leaving it was quite good, but unfortunately without much breakfast as the kitchen staff were late setting it out. To add insult to injury, the waitress went to take the orders foe a large group who had just come into the dining room! I certainly won't give this hotel my custom again! Its a very old fashioned hotel, but lacks the quaintness of charm. Needs a lot of TLC. The staff are badly trained and don't know the first thing about customer service! I wouldn't recommend it. If breakfast is at 8am then it should be ready at 8am, not 8.20am! And customers orders should be taken in the order they appear! Not taking a group of 8 who have just come in before others who have been waiting! They should train their staff!

The location is great and some staff are very helpful but don't have the knowledge or authority to fix things. The wifi didn't work in my room despite raising this with staff. The breakfast was very oily. There also was no tourist information available. It was also expensive for shared bathrooms and very tired decor.

The staff were really friendly. The room was clean & comfortable considering the reasonable price. Breakfast was tasty & efficiently served & always with a smile The traffic noise was awful...felt like I was trying to nod off on the central reservation of the M8!

La posizione non e' male; abbastanza vicina al centro; ottima colzione, abbondante e varia Struttura vecchia, non c'e' l'ascensore e le scale sono piuttosto ripide. bagno minuscolo e senza miscelatore. riscaldamento sempre spento. pulizia delle camere quasi inesistente (addirittura 1 gg ci hanno lasciato solo gli asciugamani e un sacco della spazzatura fuori dalla porta). Wi fii presente solo a momenti e solo nella hall. televisore vecchio e mal funzionante. mi hanno chiesto 5 pound di deposito per un adattatore di corrente! Rapporto qualita' prezzo scarsissimo. 350 eur per 3 notti con questi servizi e' un'assurdita'.

Att marknadsföra att man har fri internet på hotellet med nätverk som endast fungera vissa stunder på dygnet, och då bara helt nära hotellets reception. Ej någon kontakt alls i rummen. Bli väckt kl 10,00 på nyårsdag med frågan om jag ville ha städning.

Su ubicación es muy buena y el personal amable y servicial, pero las zonas comunes dejan bastante que desear Los pasillos que conducen a las habitaciones están sucios y son intricados.

Merkeze yakın olması hoşuma giden tek tarafıydı. Gerçi kahvaltısı da fena sayılmazdı. Yorganları hem temiz görünmüyordu hem de çok eskiydi. Otel genel olarak çok eski. Kahvaltı salonundaki sandalyelere mecbur kalmasam oturmazdım. Sunulanlara oranla fiyatı yüksek bile denilebilir. Banyoda bir priz dahi bulamadım. Odada internet yok. Odadaki su ısıtıc kullanılmayacak vaziyetteydi.Saç kurutma makinesini de resepsiyondan istemak durumundasınız..

Sijanti hyvä, melko rauhallinen hotelli. Huone olisi voinut olla siistimpi ja aamupala monipuolisempi, hotellin vastaanotossa oli yöllä saapuessamme huonosti englantia puhuva henkilö, joka ei ollut tehtävissään ajan tasalla, ei antanut luotettavaa kuvaa palvelusta.
