Basic but clean and friendly staff
We booked this hotel as it was roughly cheapest for one night stay in Edinburgh. Its a 45 min walk into Edinburgh or 10 mins in taxi. Taxi cost us about £10. The room was badic but clean. Shower was powerful and enough clean towels for the 2 of us. There was a freeview tv. Kettle tea and coffee. We had a couple of drinks in bar before heading out. Staff were lovely.

Generally, the hotel staff are courteous and polite. But there are no intercom or telephone in the rooms. The rooms are not cleaned everyday or while the guest was there. All my three nights my room was not cleaned or the bed spread changed once. The cost per night is also on the high side considering the services and the foods are very expensive with the quality and quantity of food to be servered.

There was mold on the bath mat, around the soap dispenser and on the tiles around the bath in all three rooms. This was off-putting for the young people we had booked the room for

The outside of the building was not inviting and more signs to confirm you are heading in the right direction would be beneficial. The restaurant was not inviting very open, cafeteria environment. Not welcoming for a late night drink. The room, whilst clean, was very old fashioned, beds looked like they were from the 60s. Mattress dipping in the middle. Only 1 pillow per bed. No extra blankets in case you got cold. Window looking out to river was lovely but window is in desperate need of a clean on the outside. Bathroom was mouldy, mould on the ceiling and black grout in-between tiles. No toilet brush. Very noisy, with peoples room doors slamming, some door closers on these would be beneficial. Also a larger tv would be better. Better quality of tea and coffee would be nice.

This hotel seems to be stuck in the 80s. Last minute booking as I had booked the wrong night at a Premier Inn, so took what we could get, but it certainly wasn’t up to the standard of a Premier Inn or even a Travelodge, but cost about 3 times as much. Granted, it was extremely last minute booking, on a Saturday night on a rugby weekend in Edinburgh but excessive cost for the quality. Only one pillow each. Saying that, everything was really clean, nice towels and toiletries. Reception staff quite unfriendly. Sorry, but everything needs a huge modernisation especially at the price.
