Thank you very much all for a good stay for a weekend or short stay. Greatly enjoyed how the reasonably large room with breakfast included was arranged when we arrived. The location was nice and perfect, right next to huge park with easy access to shops and supermarkets.

The venue's position was remote. A bus stop was in front of the venue. Got warm and cosy room with a shared bathroom, the diligent attention plus tbh a very depressing atmosphere - always come in handy.

Our room was warm and cosy and never cleaned or beds made. Central heating, an ironing set, and coffee/tea making machines were available here too. This hotel was located in a remote area next to a bus station directly to the City Centre, close to pubs and two Tesco Supermarkets as well as pubs.
The staff were quite rude, didn't expect that coming.

The room was never cleaned or beds made and available with single beds, comfortable if basic plus a shared shower. The location in a very convenient area was marvellous and there were a supermarket and shops nearby.

The staff was incredibly nice providing the information. Stayed at a spotlessly clean and compact room with the diligent attention and tbh a very depressing atmosphere.

The breakfast had lots of options, croissants, cereal, jam, and cheese. It had marvellous location near to a park, the sea and all local attractions. Went to The Persevere Bar for drink or two, set not too far from the hotel.

It has good location in Edinburgh just next door to a bus station directly to the City Centre, close to pubs and two Tesco Supermarkets, huge park and Portobello Beach. The staff are amicable and really care about the guests. Next time in Edinburgh, I would stay here again.

The property seemed fairly clean and the room was neat. The room was never cleaned or beds made and available in good condition. Its location was great and ideal, in the park on at least 2 evenings until after 9. We had early meal in Lucky Buddha, based nearby.
The setting was bad.
