    Superb
    Cozy, comfortable, happy and relaxed.
    The rooms and toilet are clean. It was comfortable to sleep in and very cozy. The staff is very accomodating.
    Its distance to city centre is decent but still far. There were no breakfast or food.

    Returning someday soon.
    It was a lovely cozy place that felt very welcoming. Location is great and all in all a very good place to stay.
    Nothing, everything was great and above board.

    Perfect for a short stay
    The host was friendly and helpful and the room had everything I needed for a short stay. It was reasonably close to attractions, about 15 min walk to Edinburgh Castle and Grassmarket.
    The walls are a bit thin and I could hear other guests. It was also a bit of a walk to Waverley Station (20 min).

    I had a very pleasant stay! Although nothing really so special I think the location is good, the room spatious enough and the bed excellent. You can walk into the city center in about 10-15 mins and buses from this area take you basically anywhere in Edinburgh. Very friendly and helpful staff.

    Very poor
    Awful
    Nothing
    It was worse than student accommodation, bits of wood screwed to the wall to cover up holes, the TV did not face into the room and it wasnt on a bracket to turn it. The bathroom decor was dreadful, hole and cracks in the walls poorly fitted sanitary ware.

    Pleasant
    Cheap but still not worth it
    Easy to access with lockbox code.
    Kettle was broken, bed was rock-hard, window didn't open, only a loud electric heater to heat to the room, no shower gel, tap water tasted metallic. Also no thumb lock on the door, which I believe is illegal and against fire safety regulations.
