The property was reasonably priced and in a good location. We had good night’s sleep on both nights of our stay and were comfortable. Breakfast was not included but reasonable for the price of £9.95 (continental). The porridge was excellent! The decor was quite tired and it was quite dark inside. The dining room had an aroma of fried food. The staff were flexible and we were able to change rooms as the original room was at the top of quite a steep staircase and very hot and airless. Our second room was larger, more airy and had a seating area which looked out onto the garden and was pleasant.
This hotel needs a major renovation. The conversion from a house to a hotel is very poor and not up to modern standards. The bathroom finishes are very messy, the toilet has been wedged into a tight corner and the bath itself is dangerous and slippery when wet from the shower. The soap shelf was also broken. The only positive point was that it was close to the friend we were visiting.
Very comfortable but struggled to move in shower as rather on small side

The lodge staff were kind and helpful however the room felt dark and musty. I could hear people talking and moving around in adjoining areas. Shower small. Probably would not suit anyone over 150 lbs. or 5'10'. For the price it seemed below average. It was close to bus service and grocery stores. Kind of a weird check-in process.
The hotel is a short 2 minute walk to the nearest bus stop with buses leaving regularly to and from the city center (a 30-minute bus ride). It is also only 2-3 stops from the Edinburgh Zoo. Breakfast is available, but not included, and is a little pricey, even for the cheapest- the 'continental style' breakfast.
We were greeted by a lovely staff member close to 9:00pm. Easy check in. Very quiet area. If stairs are an issue you will need to request a downstairs room. No elevator. Our room was pleasant and clean. Perfect location only 3 stops from the airport.
The mattress was had springs sticking up and uncomfortable. Our room was up 2 flights of stairs… one flight of stairs was a small spiral narrow winding stairs and it was almost impossible to get your luggage up it. There was no elevator. There was also suppose to be WiFi and it did not work for our entire stay.
Quick visit for access to Edinburgh Airport bus the gollowing morning. 100 metres to Drum Brae South stop. Very pleasant rooms and bed quite comfortable.
On a bus route. Just bit further out of town from Edinburgh Zoo. Friendly welcome at the door as we arrived. Nice clean quiet room with double bed & single bed, & en-suite with shower & bath. Nice views out over garden. Peaceful night. Very helpful hosts. Hopefully we will be back.
