    Beautiful room, amazing shower, comfy bed. Great having private entrance away from bar/restaurant. Staff were lovely and helpful. On a main route into the city so easy & quick commute in and out.

    The room we stayed in was lovely, it was clean and tidy, the shower was good also quite strong, the view was not the best but we were in the middle of Edinburgh the staff were great and very helpful. The bar was really busy as it was rugby...
