The owner likes cash payments for the rooms and sends a notice to people making reservations that the credit card machine isn't working right and you need to bring cash. The card machine works just fine. The person at check in was very helpful and took my card as payment.
The hotel is a converted Victorian home, so the rooms are odd shaped and small. There were a few maintenance issues, but in general, things worked and we had a good stay. The staff was helpful and friendly. This is a good "budget" hotel where you don't expect a large room with a view and great amenities. It's a place to sleep while you explore Edinburgh. (The bed was comfortable.)

Near train station. Clean and basic. The room was huge!

The staff was amazingly kind and helpful. Letting us store our luggage at 1000 in a locked office so we could explore hands free until check in. They did their best to accomidate reasonable requests and were very pleasant. The room was extremely clean and the bed was comfortable.
Now of course it is an old building so u can hear people when they are outside your door, bur incouls not hear any street noise. There are minor cosmetic issues. And the heat keeps off the chill but wont keep the room real warm on cold nights. Over all the flaws were minor, the character, convenience and price made this a winner.

Fantastic location just where I needed to be .
Buses, tram and train station literally across the road .
It was just what I expected out of a budget hotel ,it served its purpose well .
Great for an overnight stay (which I did ) wouldn’t want to stay much longer .
I would deffo book this place again next time I am up in the area .
