I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but the shared bathroom was a slight inconvenience. The service, although not usually provided, was exceptional. The hotel's location in the center of Edinburgh was very convenient, but the slopping ceiling in the room was a drawback. The dining experience, with included homemade pizza, was a nice touch. The overall facilities were decent.

The hotel is perfectly situated in the heart of Edinburgh, making it very convenient for exploring the city. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and the shared bathrooms are usually well-maintained. However, the service, although not always available, is friendly. The central location is a definite plus for sightseeing, but parking options may be limited. The dining options are adequate, with a simple granola breakfast included. The facilities are satisfactory for a pleasant stay.

This hotel is situated right in the city center, making it convenient to reach most tourist attractions, although parking is a challenge with limited spaces for permit holders. The rooms are cozy with slopping ceilings and beautiful interiors, but the shared bathrooms may not suit everyone. The service, while usually not possible, was satisfactory. The dining options include glazed cakes, and the facilities offered are decent.

The hotel is perfectly situated in the center of Edinburgh, making it convenient for exploring the city. The rooms are cozy, some equipped with a slopping ceiling, and feature very neat en suite bathrooms. However, sharing a bathroom that needs updating could be a downside.

I stayed at this hotel and had a mixed experience. The rooms were usually pretty clean, but having a shared bathroom was a downside for me. The service was not usually possible, which was unfortunate. In terms of location, it was lucky to be in the center of New Town in Edinburgh, but parking was a hassle being mostly for permit holders.
