Would not recommend

Very disappointed. The room was dirty and looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in weeks. The carpet was uplifting. No lock on the ensuite door.

Ok for a base for one night.

Good parking available for £7.50 for 24 hours, for Edinburgh I suppose is ok. Staff friendly. Three lifts to above ground levels. Room ok looked clean and tidy but there were various marked around the walls and skirtings, bath panel coming off and flooring in bathroom coming away from the walls. With this all said it was ok for a one night stay and yes I would stay again for a night if I needed to.

The location is excellent it was easy to find and accessible to many places around Edinburgh. The underground rooms were quieter and dark for a good sleep, we felt safe, relaxed and comfortable. The flexibility to come in and go anytime was a bonus. The extended car park was also very handy. The limited dining was a downer for us as we had no breakfast on site. Overall the property meets all the basic requirements for coaches and brief weekend getaway.

Our room was like a maze to find. They told us we were on the second floor but we had to go across the first floor and then up a random set of stairs to find our secluded floor. The signage wasn’t much help to find it. Our room smelt very strongly of men’s deodorant which was a bit off putting.

Go elsewhere.

Arrived after a long drive, and on check-in, was not told what time breakfast was served. Went down the next morning to find it had finished. Staff couldn’t refund because Hotels.com hadn’t sent the funds yet. Contacted Hotels.com to be told “can’t refund the breakfast as it was free”. I paid for a room, and selected breakfast as an option at £24, but according to Hotels.com, that means instead of a room costing £42, I selected a room for £66, that included a free breakfast. This WAS NOT the case. I paid an extra, optional charge of £24 for one breakfast (not exactly cheap!), but Hotels,com re-word it to make it look like I’ve selected a different room with free breakfast (oddly enough, the exact same room as one without). Wasn’t told about breakfast times on arrival (and in all fairness, I forgot to ask). Room was freezing cold even with the pathetic little electric heater on full (barely gave out any heat at all). After spending some time speaking with the staff about the breakfast issue, returned to my room to quickly change and get my bags, to get a knock on the door at 10:04 and greeted with the words “check out is 10am. That is now”. Rude? Appalling. Gave no appreciation that I’d spent 20 minutes at reception waiting for staff to try and find out what had happened about breakfast….. Definitely won’t return. Won’t be using Hotels.com again.
