"The rooms are well designed with convenience in mind- there were drawers that pulled out from under the bed for luggage storage and a little kitchen with basic cooking dishes, plates and even a little dishwasher."

unclean shower poor soundproofing

The location was great, right in the city center.

The room was not well-kept. The shower wasn't cleaned properly. I found the stomping from upstairs and people in the corridor very loud, since the room wasn't soundproofed. These issues detracted from the overall experience and I expect more for the price

Fantastic Stay with Castle Views

quiet location useful kitchen thoughtful provision

The location could not be better. It is near Grassmarket. I found restaurants and pubs close by. My room was quiet at night. The kitchen facilities are useful. I appreciated the milk in the fridge.

The towel rail in the bathroom was permanently heated. It made the room a bit too warm at times.

The bedroom had comfortable beds and pillows for a restful sleep. I especially liked the window offering a view of the sky from the room, offering an amazing perspective. It had more than the necessary household appliances.
