We had difficulty getting into the property even though we had advised them of late arrival. They sent an email through Expedia explaining how to get in which Palmerston showed me, but I still haven’t received! We did love the neighborhood and the 75 steps up to our room were invigorating!!

We had a lovely stay. We had booked a double and we’re rewarded with a big four poster! The property was perfectly situated for where we wanted to be. We will definitely book again.

Warm and good value but see comments
The room was warm, and the bed comfortable (though the bottom sheet wasn't big enough for the double bed; I was alone; two people might have been more affected by this). (1) Biggest flaw: NO TABLE/BREAKFAST BAR OR CHAIRS TO EAT FOOD. (In fact no chair at all), though basic cooking facilities (microwave, small hob, kettle, toaster), pans and utensils were provided; nor were there any trays to eat off one's lap. (2) Not suitable for anyone of limited mobility or 'traditional build': the stairs down to my basement room had no rail for part of the way, and the shower and surrounding area were cramped (though the water was nice and hot)

We came here for new years eve, good location 10min walk to princess street. Really enjoyed our stay just a couple of things to be aware of... there is no lift and a lot of stairs, we had requested a low level room as i have mobility issues and were put right on top floor with 6 sets of stairs was not ideal. Room was lovely, cleaned and fresh towels everyday. 1 of the days we got up late and the cleaner walked straight in without knocking. Very apologetic but also embarrassing for me as i was just in a towel after showering. Room was extremely hot all the time. Not a bad stay

NIGHTMARE HOTEL. We had booked a 4 night stay in what seemed to be a well located - good reputation apartment block. How wrong we were. We were awoken in the middle of the night (twice, one at 2am & another night at 4am) to banging on the front communal door and then somebody banging on our own front windows (right by our bed) as we were staying on the ground floor. This was utterly terrifying to say the least. Even if this was someone locked out- this didn’t matter- we called the out of hours emergency number and it went straight to voicemail multiple times, when speaking to the receptionist the next morning who was utterly helpless, she was more concerned that we had phoned 101 to get advice from The police rather than checking what had happened. The police actually attended the property to investigate after we called 999 due to this being multiple times that someone was banging on our windows trying to gain access into the building. They thought it became a concern for welfare. The room itself was very basic. A tap that you could almost pull off when trying to turn it on, a door that looked like it has been kicked in, very basic kitchen supplies - we ended up buying even kitchen spray and wipes for the surface as there was nothing to use - the fans for the bathroom and kitchen barely worked and the overall room was not worth the ridiculous amount of money we payed for it. We are utterly fed up and disappointed in this stay, we will NEVER be staying here again.

Good value
This was good value with a central location and I would stay again as close to my office for work. The room was a decent size. Shower was a bit small but good pressure. The curtains were a bit stained and could do with being replaced, same with sofa. Overall decent experience.

Palmerston was perfect for the price and for what we were looking for. We were hardly in our room because we spent the day exploring Edinburgh, so we didn’t need anything more luxurious. The bed was adequately comfortable for resting and the room temperature was fine. It was ten minutes’ walk to the tran and busses. All in all, it was comfortable and perfect for our purposes.
