The building needs to be renovated from the inside, it felt and looked very old. Our room was next to the steps and it was noisy and there was were weird stains on the bathroom wall and we couldn't close the window because there was a weird smell. One good thing was there was free parking

Thank you
It was a good short visit , the best thing of the hotel is location. I am extremely thankful to one of the staff members ( dont know the name ; but she was cleaning the room and dining area in afternoon), she has such a good heart, guided me, helped with phone charger, told me how to get around the city. Invited me inside to sit down in warmth while waiting for check in as i was early. God bless you always! And thank you. I left the charger point at front desk and a thnk you note, hopefully you received it.all the stars i gave are for her. Thank you for your kindness

Worst hotel in Edinburgh
Hotel was really run down, carpets are so work you can see the threads, shower had no pressure and just trickled out. Windows let so much draft in, it was freezing in the room. I was also hounded by thr hotel days before my arrival for my crad details so they could take payment, on a room id booked to pay at the hotel? Paid £200 for a night, save your money and go to the travel lodge down tbe road.

Will continue here, micro rusty. No escape from ro
Walked through the front door to noone on reception,we had to ring the bell on the desk before someone arrived. We told him our name and was given a key to the second floor, as told enjoy your stay before he disappeared. So after struggling up the several flights of stairs and long corridors. (No lift) we got to the top of the building. Room no.20. On first impressions, looked clean and tidy. Then sat down in a very cluttered room and took everything in. Put kettle on have a cuppa, big crack it one of the mugs.Go to get a shower, the cubicle was so small you had to leave the door open so you could move. No grab rails, cupboard under sink to store your toiletries , just bare wall and pipes. Double bed had a part memory foam topped mattress, which on inspection ( see pic) was covered in urine stains. I approached one of the cleaning ladied and asked if we could have a different mattress, she told us this could not be done. And it would be ok because the mattress protector was clean on(which was not clean) i asked could we have a clean one to be told sorry but we dont have any! The beds thenselves were cheap metal ones the ones that are responsible for multiple bruises on knees and toes, because they were too big for the tiny room. Cheap hairdryer that over heated. No iron or board as stated. The room was hoovered once in all our stay curtains stank of cigarettes. Went down stairs to check out the dinning room. One shared fridge and wooden spoons and paper plates on the side.con

The property is okay, good location, bus stop right in front of the hotel (8 stops for the center of the city). The bedroom was simple, need a better maintenance of the building and bedroom (There was a 5" hole behind the toilet with pipes exposed). No AC, no mini bar and no ice maker.
