Beds, internet speed, place, cleanness was perfect. Staff was helpfull.

Cem Turkey

Very friendly and helpful staff, comfortable bed, great location

Christian United States of America

Very close to all city attractions, easy to reach from the airport by tram. My room was very quiet and I did not hear other guests although the hotel was fully booked, A parcel from the NHS was delivered from to the hotel -no problem at all.

Goran Austria

Same as any Yotel but that’s the nice thing about it. Had to book last minute as multiple missed trains left us in Edinburgh overnight. The bed was incredibly comfortable. Pillows were perfect.

Samantha Ireland

The breakfast was very filling and the location was close to many of the tourist sites including Edinburgh castle.

Christiana Nigeria

Great great location, amenities good, such a clean and spacious room.

Nicole United States of America

It was defiantly the cleanest room during my stay in the UK

Michal Israel

Location great Clean and very comfortable Very enjoyable stay will visit again

Noreen United Kingdom

Very clean, friendly helpful staff. Air conditioning was a welcome relief as it was hot during our stay. Good showers

Tess United States of America

I was looking for a small room for just myself right by the city center and this was it. It was a cute hotel with just enough amenities for me. It had a great bed and a great rainfall shower. The concept of the hotel is cute with the capsule idea and the color scheme. I thought it was a cute hotel that is great for the solo traveler and someone looking for save some money but get a great value. The breakfast also had a lot of variety and a really nice staff.
