The room was perfect and clean and equipped with separate private bathroom, a bath, for instance as described. Amicable staff, couldn't ask for more. The location was magnificent over a night club that ran until 5am, you may take train on Edinburgh Waverley train station within 10 minutes walk from here.
That elevator was missing.

Had 4 days in Edinburgh, spending our time here lovely. The staffs were helpful & exceptionally nice. The location turned out to be perfect, near Scotland and central Edinburgh for £150/night on a Fringe bank holiday weekend. Again, it was a 10-15 minute walk from a national portrait gallery.

Our double room was equipped with a bath as well as separate private bathroom. The location was magnificent and convenient, around 10-15 minutes walk from a national art gallery. Plus, it was so close to central Edinburgh for £150/night on a Fringe bank holiday weekend, train station, and restaurants. Loved the Irish bar.
