Liked: Cleanliness
The room was clean, quiet, and in a great location a few minutes walk from the Royal Mile. The room had some unique features like a 'pod' shaped bathroom with shower doors that split down the middle like saloon doors. There are no outlets on either side of the bed which mad charging devices difficult. My room was very cold and whenever i turned the thermostat up it would revert back to first, cool temp. There are 2 spare pullows but nonspare blankets in the room.

Location almost on the Royal Mile but not quite, instead is on a very busy bus-filled road that leads to lots of cheaper food & services away from the prices on High Street, feels like the living heart of the old town, rather than the touristy part. Rooms have very thin walls—I was surprised how clearly we could hear our neighbors. The bathroom is a cheap pre-fab that feels outdated—there is mold behind the toilet flush buttons. Sadly, our room lost all hot water 1 day & it didn’t come back till the next day! But the room is warm & dry & the window looked out onto the busy street below. The staff is all friendly & warm!

I know you get what you pay for. The breakfast was great, the location great, the staff great, but the room we had on the 8th floor was in dire need of renovation. The Lino floor panels were all peeling around the edges annd cracking and those bathroom cubicles do not get rid of the heat and moisture very well. The rooms have paper thin walls and everyone was banging doors all night long, shaking the walls. The carpets in the hall have seen much better days. Housekeeping was fine, the difference between bath towels and towels being a difference price point was nitpicky by the staff. The bed was very firm, too firm for my taste and after 6 nights it caused me some grief. But as I said, you get what you pay for. The rooms are warm and the water hot. I just think they could do some long overdue renovation. I stayed before about 5 years ago and the room I had then was immaculate. However as I said, staff were always helpful and it is worth the breakfast.
