Spacious and Convenient

“I stayed in the Beautiful Triple Room, and I was pleasantly surprised by its spaciousness. It was clean and had enough room for all our bags. The closet space could use some improvement, but overall, it made for a comfortable stay.” view full review

Needed a Bit More Care

“While the shared bathroom was functional, it could use some attention. On one occasion, it appeared a bit messy, which made me wish there were more dedicated cleaning efforts. A second bathroom would be great, especially with multiple rooms to share.” view full review

My trip to Edinburgh was wonderful thanks to this great location! So close to the city center and a bus stop. Even had a Lidl nearby which was amazing for stocking up on croissants. The room was spacious and clean, and the overall experience was great despite some minor issues mentioned elsewhere.
