Guest Score 4 out of 10
Disappointing
The location of the hotel.
The breakfast range, the room was dirty and bed uncomfortable, it was cold at night and I needed to ask for another duvet, the TV wasn't working, the teaspoon of the tea cup in the bedroom was dirty, one staff in particular was abrupt and asked me why I didn't ask to change the room straight away- I told her 'we are here on holiday and visiting the city, not staying in and checking the room and whatever it's wrong with it. We only realised of a few things not right in the evening once back in the hotel'.
Only a couple of staff offered to assist us and gave us some drinks and snacks as an apology to our stay. However, this might not be enough after spending a lot for the room.

We stayed for my daughters birthday and the staff went above and beyond for us. Oyin and Sam were fantastic and decorated my daughter’s room full of balloons and a fancy decoration on mirror. We felt so welcome and enjoyed our stay. We will definitely be back.

Location is not far from Edinburgh Waverley Station and closed to Royal Mile.
The stay was comfortable including breakfast.
For us as Thai, meeting Thai staffs at reception and breakfast room were special warm welcome
When using sofa bed in Double room with single sofa bed, there is no space for opening luggage.

Pleasant
Room was small for the price we paid
Bed was very hard pillows were awful lumpy & hard hardly slept at all we asked for extra pillows which we were given requested softer ones but were told they were all the same. Adjoining room next door children jumping up & down yelling at 6 am wouldn't stay again. A bit of soundproofing would be an idea.

Bathroom door needed attention. Creaked very loudly, (especially disturbing in the middle of the night). Had to report it 3 times and we were promised attention to it but it never materialised,

Disappointing
Our first room was a good size, unfortunately the shower drain was blocked and flooded the entire room. We were moved to another room, where we had to climb over our suitcases that were on the floor to get to our beds. Sofa bed for 2 teenage boys was very small. Location was good, breakfast was great.

The hotel is in a great location, near the castle and royal mile, the customer service was good, especially Dillon who checked us in and went out his way to ensure our stay was a good one.

Fantastic location perfect for strolling into the heart of the city about 200 yards from the royal mile. Comfortable bed although I can imagine in the summer the air con unit outside the window maybe a problem. Staff were amazing especially the kitchen staff as plenty of choice at breakfast. Can not fault our choice of accommodation thank you guys so much
