The fire alarm went off at 3:15 AM and the manager didn’t show up until 5 AM. Luckily the fire department was able to come shut it off.

I liked how close it was to town. Walking or taking the bus are great options to get into town. It was clean.

The property is in need of some updating; the bathroom door was very stiff - an older person might easily find themselves unable to open the door! We also hadn't appreciated that the property doesn't have an on-site reception (instead, you are sent a code for collecting your room key from a machine). The property is not very baby friendly - the hotel does not have a lift, and our room was located on the first floor. This was quite difficult for us as we had to carry our pram up and down stairs numerous times a day. Unfortunately, the fire alarm went off at 1.20am one night during our stay. We waited outside for 40 minutes, only to be told (by firefighters) that it was a false alarm. No representative of the hotel has been in touch with us since, either to offer an apology or a partial refund. This is extremely poor.

The property is very well located. There is a lovely park just opposite the property and the property is a very short walk to good cafes, pubs and restaurants. Our room was clean, and well equipped with ample tea, coffee and milk, as well as a hairdryer, iron and ironing board.

Double bed very lumpy. Could feel springs. Due for a new mattress.

Location and room size was good.

Dirty, shower room blocked. Hot water takes ages to come, lots of water waste. Staff is none existent and the person who answers the phone has very poor English and not helpful whatsoever. Finding the room was a bit of a challenge as they have some odd numerical system. Some of the rooms are literally on the parking lot.

Location is great. Lots of shops and places to eat around. But nothing else.

Wifi and shower was interesting

We have never seen anyone at the reception. The hotel has selfcheck in and check out service and handing the keys, so if you have any troubles with any of those, probably, you will not get immediate support. All furniture in the room was quite old, it needs to be repaired here and there and cleaned properly. In general cleaning should be done better everywhere in the room. We had room on -1, so we heard very well everything what was going on above us and around: noice isolation almost doesn't exist. Also beaming light from the front yard projector was lighting right in our window and it was quite irritating. We closed curtains tight to make it less disturbing.

This guest house is located in nice area. It is not noisy or busy around, however there're few good restaurants and pubs in the neighborhood. Easy to get to the city center by foot or by public transport. Room was quite big. Kitchenette appliances were there for our use.

Bed was uncomfortable. No Wi-Fi in room 10. There was coffee in the kettle which took a while to wash out. No visible staff. I did briefly happen to see the manager in reception but was a chance encounter I think. I prefer the personal touch on check in and seeing staff .

We didn’t have breakfast. Didn’t realise it was an option? Room with a view was nice, top floor with views across the park. Close proximity to tram stop.

The luggage hold area is not secure. Anyone can come and take luggage. There should be a token system and one staff member should control this. We arrived early and we wanted to leave our luggage but we felt it was unsafe. Secondly, our next door people knocked on the door at 9pm very strongly not once but twice. That's very rude.

It was clean and tidy. I like the bed. The room is fully equipped.

Honestly, it's my first time staying in a place like this. I didn't know that guest houses were unmanned houses. But I was satisfied, everything was very nice. There were all the necessary equipment such as iron, dryer, ironing board.

Not such a comfortable bed. Can feel the metal springs Thin pillows need filling out. Bathroom door does not shut! Toilet and seat and toilet moves! Bathroom sink ok but glass shelf above gives little access to the sink - try washing your face in the sink

A clean, tidy property Good shower Towels, and coffee supplies readily available.

Key safe check-in is fine, except we were in an annexe with an external door for which we had no key. A passing housekeeper happened to notice us and let us in, but we still had to negotiate via WhatsApp with some remote (but very helpful) staff to get access to that other key. The room was clean enough, but the "kitchenette" is actually a fridge, microwave and toaster. No plates, cutlery or work surfaces, and nowhere to wash up. Even when housekeeping came in after our first night, she emptied our bin but did not replace dirty cups and glasses. The drawers had not been checked before our arrival so we had an unpleasant something to greet us when we opened them. We logged in to the WiFi but were too far from the hub to actually use it. Similarly the TV did not connect with the remote so was a bit useless. Not a big deal for us bit a bit annoying. The hotel is not responsible for our neighbours but the walls were so thin that when they got up and started watching TV and generally having a great time at 6am they might as well have been in the room with us.

Essentially, you get what you pay for. It was a roof over our heads at a price that allows people like us, who couldn't otherwise afford to stay in Edinburgh, to stay for two whole nights.
