Cool budget hotel in atmospheric location
This hotel has an excellent location five minutes from Waverley Station. It's quite a busy corner of Edinburgh, but our window, which we could open for fresh air, looked out onto a light well at the back, so no view but pretty quiet. The hotel has a youthful, Scandi vibe. The room was small - with two single beds and two people's luggage it was a bit of a squeeze but ok. Body wash and shampoo in the bathroom smelled lovely. I loved the eco features, such as a blackboard in the restaurant recording last week's food waste. Breakfast was good value. From an environmental point of view I think there should be more prominent plant-based options at breakfast. There was meat, cheese, and yogurt displayed prominently, but also cereal, toast and fruit, and cooked tomatoes, beans, mushrooms and hash browns. Non-dairy milk is available if you ask, but it came in a mug, not a jug, and was not chilled. Some hot oat milk to go in coffee would be a nice addition.

Perfect as a base
Rooms are as expected at budget, very clean, abit cramped in the bathroom however no air con meant two of us had to change rooms due to heat. We left a fan on all day and it was hotter than when we left. This was in February so dread to think how hot summer gets. Staff were very good and happy at all times, that was nice. Location is good. Breakfast had a good variety.

Excellent value
Hotel was in a great location, close to the train station and many attractions. It wasn’t particularly fancy but it was clean and the staff were very friendly. For the price we paid it was excellent value
