Value for money, but would perhaps look elsewhere for shorter stays!”

I can see this being an amazing place for longer stays due to the facilities available, but as I was only staying one night, I wished I'd paid a little more for somewhere else with en suite etc as having a kitchen wasn't something I needed. However, the rooms were clean and good value for money (especially during Fringe season in Edinburgh). The staff were also lovely! My only complaint is how super thin the walls were!!

The bedroom is clean. The bathroom is filthy. There is absolutely no sound proofing between the rooms so you will hear everything going on in the neighboring rooms. During the day and during the night.

Very small room with many floors of stairs, small double bed, check in after 3:00 pm and leave at 10:00 am. These rentals should not appear on Agoda!

Horrible experience ”

I stayed here last night it was rather uncomfortable. From 1am to 4.30am all I and my friend heard was shouting and screaming. Doors slamming and people constantly buzzing the buzzer because they were locked out. Had to use the toilet that was covered in pee from other people further more I do believe this was slightly over priced for the experience I had

Equipement insuffisant en cuisine”

Les photos correspondent à l'établissement neuf ce qui n'est pas le cas. L'équipement de la cuisine partagée est très insuffisant (une seule casserole non adaptée à la plaque d'induction, une seule petite assiette creuse pour chauffer au micro-ondes, des chaises non stables par manque de vis). Nous avons obtenus 2 mugs et 2 bols supplémentaires (mais pas de casserole adaptée) après 24 heures.

Huone oli tarpeeksi iso, mukava sänky. Yhteiset keittiötilat ok, astiat olivat vasta isossa pahvilaatikossa, mutta kalastimme sieltä tarvittavat. Miinusta esim. roskiksen puuttumisesta vessassa sekä huonosta äänieristyksestä. Ambulanssit ja kadulla juttelevat ihmiset kuuluivat turhan hyvin huoneeseen. Sokkeloinen rakennus.
