Fantastic friendly, helpful service from everyone at the front desk. If I needed anything they were there to help with a smile. Housekeepers kept everything spotless clean. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Kiln housing.
We didn’t have a top sheet or blanket when we arrived. The space was fine, a bit spartan but enough equipment for two. Closer to many of the events at the festival. Could use a bit of art on the walls. Drainage in the shower was poor. Courtyard was a bit noisy especially on a weekend night, if you know why fat I mean.
Staff was great, friendly and helpful. I’d go there again but I’m not sure my partner would.
Staff were very helpful and friendly, the student apartments are very basic but functional. No bells and whistles just somewhere to put your head down for the night nothing more nothing less.

The staff is very good, no complaints there. The rooms are designed for student housing so the beds are small, uncomfortable, the chairs are uncomfortable, the window is terrible as a result the rooms get stuffy and hot. (Probably not a concern most of the year) But it is student housing at a cheap cost so what does one expect really. The location is great.
We had a wonderful stay! Very close to Old town and Arthur’s seat! The staff were all very friendly. Overall a great stay!

Very good location and great staff. The room (2 rm apartment) was well equipped, very reasonably priced and functional. Mattress could do with a replacement in one of the rooms. Great for visiting the Fringe or Tattoo
The room was of adequate size but for 2 people the beds where too small I’d say more of a queen size than double. Was the cheapest accommodation we could find during the fringe and in a good location for many of the acts.

Liked: Cleanliness
Everything was fine apart from one thing.
All the doors bang very loudly unless you keep hold of them and allow them to close softly.
Unfortunately people didn't do this, meaning you'd be woken up either late at night or extremely early.
The accommodation needs to invest in some soft-close door closers.
It was nice to have a little kitchen area so that I could refigerate and prepare food if necessary. The only thing that was a little disconcerting was that you can't get OUT without pushing buttons or using the key card. My key card never worked on the card reader getting into the lobby, so if someone hadn't been in the lobby, I couldn't have gotten out. It made me feel a bit trapped. But everyone was very nice and helpful. Easy walk to the Royal Mile.
The location was convenient and the staff were friendly and helpful. The room size was fine for a couple of nights. The bed was not very comfortable and the pillows were very flat. The sink did not drain very quickly. The doors slam very loudly. Good internet connection.
