Usually I would agree with ‘you get what you pay for’ but in this case, I didn’t even get that. When I checked in I found out that despite it being advertised, guests cannot access the communal kitchen so that instantly increased how much I’d be paying on take away and restaurants. The bed had hair in it. The floor hadn’t been hoovered in what looked like months. The shower didn’t drain. The sink didn’t drain. I was given one roll of toilet roll for 8 days. There was no cleaning daily or at all during my stay. The door was broken. The lock on the door didn’t work. The communication from Mill House was non existent. When I rang I was told to email, my emails went unanswered. Thankfully, though they’re not meant to be involved, the staff working for the student halls addressed the hinge on the door, replaced the batteries in the lock and fixed the drains. I borrowed their Hoover to clean the floor in my room. I fully realise that this was an affordable option for the Fringe but the basics should be addressed and the communication was shocking.

Power to the people

The stay was generally good. However, the ppwer sockets didnt work. Had to find the fusebox in the kitchen/ communal room to reset the circuit breaker. Coincidentally, this reset the hallway lights and the kitchen lights. Contradictory to electrical and building regulations. Good job i got to the kitchen because the next day it was deemed out of bounds.

Avoid staying here.

Don't stay here. False advertisment. It says there is a shared kitchen but reality guests are not given access to the kitchen. I talked to the managers and they refused to rectify the situation. The hallways have trash and dirt. The mattress as horrible. The drains need to be snaked. The good things inckude solid internet and access to buses. The park nearby is lovely. If you are looking for something similar, Edinburgh College Residence is much better.

Staff was friendly and communicative. I didn't really have any issues to speak of while I was there. Bed was comfortable enough. I booked a small room but didn't need space as I was by myself and this was just a place to sleep between day excursions. All in all I was satisfied.

Room was dusty and there were a few bugs in the room (including 1 in the bed). Didnt get check-in information until after i had arrived at the building. Day before departure, got an email to say i was to vacate the room by 10am, despite booking confirmation saying it was 11am. Found out from check in information that because i had an ensuite room, i could not use the kitchen (the main reason I had booked this accommodation).

Check in was the most disorganised and stressful experience I’ve ever had. Room was very dirty, lots of fluff and dust. The communal areas - hallway and kitchen also dirty, looked like there was no cleaning done prior to my stay. No rubbish bin provided in room. Kitchen did not have any amenities, no kettle cups or cookware, I don’t understand why you would advertise kitchen access if there is no possible way to use it. Bed was extremely uncomfortable, could feel the springs.

Tried multiple times to communitate with the host on multilpe platforms with no luck. Someones dirty towels left in the closet. Not sure when it was last vacummed. No fan, or way to be cool during hot humid weather, even with window open. No use of a kitchen or fridge to store food.

I accept that it was student accommodation during The Edinburgh Fringe and that you get what you pay for but the shower tray in one room did not drain and all the mattresses were atrocious. In general the property was clean. My main disappointment was the communication with the property, before and during my stay. 4 messages and 0 replies. I received comflicting emails with regards booking in and booking out. As I said, disappointing.

Ok room, broken ventilation,very bad communication

The experience was good. I was a little concerned when I read some of the reviews, but I found experience good enough. If you are experiencing an hotel, then you will be disappointed. It is a student flat, but it is good for a student flat. The bed was nice, the shower worked etc. For the price, I think it is good. Also close to food shops, close to buses and the area felt safe, although a little bit outside the city, but only like 25 min with bus. Things that should be fixed: The ventilation at the bathroom was damaged. It was hanging from the roof, it was full of dust, and did not work properly. The room was still damp, almost 24 hours after using the shower, and the towel didn’t dry because of that. Biggest minus, is I struggled alot getting in touch with Mill House. They don’t respond in the hotels.com chat. I tried to call the number hotels.com provided. When I called it, I got the message that this number did not exist. I got the real contact information after contacting hotels.coms customer. After getting the contact information, I sendt an email to Mill house. I got then quite fast an email saying «last reminder or your room get cancelled». And got then 24 hour to send a copy of my passport. I find that strange, because this was the first email I had gotten from Mill House, and seem like room would have been cancelled, if I did not put alot of effort in trying to find the contact information of Mill House myself

Gostei bastante do hotel. A localização é muito boa. Tem onibus 5 minutos andando, que te deixa no centro de Edimburgo em menos de 20 minutos. O quarto estava limpo. O check in foi tranquilo e o funcionario que me atendeu foi super simpatico. Mesmo eu nao falando inglês. Unica coisa que senti falta, foi de poder usar a cozinha. Tinha entendido no anuncio que era acessível aos hospedes, mas estava fechada.
