Cozy, good location, nice breakfast in the restaurant
we booked two twin beds but got a double, noise of someone discarding glass right outside our room all day long even starting at 05:30 and lasting until almost midnight, no elevators

Location. Food in the bar downstairs was fabulous. Ate there every night. Kirsten looked after us so nicely.
The room was dark and hot. Summer heatwave with a doona on the bed! Had to strip off the bottom sheet, sleep on the doona with the sheet on top. The only double glazed window was at ground level and had only a blockout curtain for privacy from the street. To cool the room down meant leaving the window open to the street behind and deliveries etc. lots of stairs with luggage

Friendly welcome from the front of house team who couldn't do enough for us, from storing our luggage to fetching extra tea bags. The room was spotless and comfortable. The included breakfast was excellent. Location was perfect for our needs.

Location was great for us. The room was a good size. It was very clean. The space was charming as it’s above a restaurant and bar. The breakfast was delicious!
It was rather hot this week in Edinburgh (80+ degrees Fahrenheit) and the room did not have air conditioning. There was a nice Dyson fan that helped but it was still pretty toasty.
The room was also on an alley so we couldn’t leave the window open really as people were constantly passing by and heading to the pubs. I could imagine that it can get quite loud out there but fortunately we weren’t kept awake. :)

Location is great. The food was good. Beer and cocktails were nice. The staff were all friendly and helpful. Decor is nice
Room cleanliness. We had small blood splatters on the wall of our room. I noticed them as soon as we arrived and they were still there after our 2 night stay so cleaners missed it twice
The bed was as comfy but the pillows were lumpy and uncomfortable
The noise of the bottle/ glass bin getting emptied first thing on both mornings wasn’t pleasant either
The card holder for room power was also broke (held together with sellotape which kept coming off)

The stuff was great and very helpful. The pub in the hotel was great as well and the meal was very tasty. The location was fantastic, close to the Edinburgh castle and the Old Town. The bed was comfortable and the room had a fridge. We didn't buy a breakfast because we had a flight early morning.
Our room was at the end stage and had no air conditioning :(. It was our last and one hot day in Scottland and it was very hot in the room, especially at night. There was a small air cleaner in the room but it wasn't helpful. It was to hot anyway.

The room was dark. I could hardly see anything and since it was on the ground floor with a window on an alley, I didn't want to open the curtains. The mini fridge was over-stocked. It was weird to walk through a restaurant & bar to get to reception and the room.

Disappointing
The location was nice and the restaurant on site was great. The staff were also fantastic.
There is no check-in or lobby or elevators. You have to carry your bags down and up stairs and through the restaurant. It’s not accessible at all. Also there is no AC and the rooms are very hot. If you keep the window open, it is tremendously loud from beer bottles and bar patrons, and the room fills with cigarette smoke from below. Without fresh air, the fan doesn’t help too much. The hotel itself is also horribly loud - you could hear slamming doors all night and made it very hard to sleep.

Room was well appointed and included extra spoils. The packaged breakfast for us prepared very early was very appreciated. Location was a little difficult to find but convenient once located. Parking was outlined in booking instructions but links didnt work and hotel only replied several days later, after we had checked out
We requested a room with an additional bed for a 3 year old - a pack and play was provided which wasnt useful. Rooms were not close together as requested and were very hot. Hotel is located in an area that is very loud, drunk people singing and dogs barking all night

Smiley staff, great location and comfy bed.
Very small room, not properly cleaned and while there was everything you’d need, it felt cluttered.
Personally not a fan of having to pay an extra £2 if you fancy a cappuccino rather than an ordinary coffee at breakfast… esp when the room, including breakfast cost £200+
