Lovely big Apartment in perfect location

Stayed with friends for the weekend in apartment 2a and had a lovely time. Apartment is great with the only downside being the dated carpets. Lovely hamper waiting on arrival which is full and ideal start to a lovely stay. Less than 10 minutes walk into centre so perfect location. Will definitely been returning in the near future. Highly recommended.

Expected better

Reasonable location to get to centre of city. However that's about it. The shower is poor had to run for over a minute to get warm and it being only an electric as opposed to a power shower very poor pressure of water. The mattress was way too soft I weigh about 10.5 stone and I sank into it so definitely no good if you need a firm to hard bed. Other than that the room was adequate for the 2 nights we stayed.

I booked it for elderly relatives aged 82 & 75

Pros: The people at reception were nice.
Cons: The size of the room . For what I paid it needed more space. It's supply and demand of Edinburgh at festival time.
Location: What is classed as 'nearby'? Immediately nearby there was little, a few restaurants and a train station. Not far away was Edinburgh's city centre.
I only booked it, I only glimpsed it when I took their luggage downstairs to the room. It was in the basement in a tiny labyrinth of corridors. Everything seemed adequate except the size which was tiny. Not what was shown in pictures of the hotel's rooms on-line. I might recommend the hotel if the room was more spacious.

Sijainti mainio. Ratikka- ja bussipysäkki lähellä. Ruokakauppa lähellä. Huoneessamme oli hiljaista.(pohjakerros) Saimme apua silloin kun tarvitsimme. Huone oli siisti, mutta ilma tuntui välillä tunkkaiselta ja kostealta.

Staff in the reception was very kind and helpful and always ready to answer your questions. The atmosphere in the hotel is peaceful. I had a room to a courtyard and didn't hear absolutely any noise from the transport although the room was in the first floor.

Hyvien kulkuyhteyksien varrella.

Pros: Täytti odotukset!
Location: Kävelymatka ostoskadulle. Nähtävyydet kohtuullisen kävelymatkan päässä. Pubeja ja ravintoloita lähistöllä. Hyvät kulkuyhteydet.
Kylmän sään takia takia jouduimme vaihtaan huonetta. Vaihto sujui lämpimään huoneeseen sujuvasti.

Perushotelli ei liian kaukana mistään

Pros: Jotain perusbrittiä: kokolattiamatot ja nuhjuisuus.
Cons: Koko talo remonttiin!
Location: Ydinkeskusta on vartin reippaan kävelyn päässä ja ratikkapysäkkikin on lähellä. Hotellin lähellä on pari pikkukauppaa (ruoka, juoma) eikä mitään öistä
Huone oli ihan siisti, mutta kylppärissä hajulukko oli pettänyt eikä suihkukaan toiminut: Suihkun säätö oli epäkunnossa ja aluksi kutsuin remonttimiehen apuun. Lopulta otin kylmiä suihkuja. Ehkäpä näistä syistä hotelli oli tarjouslistalla.
