Great central location and a great base to get around/explore Edinburgh.Fantastic staff at the front desk - extremely helpful. Even the cleaners were helpful and accommodating! This was let down by the physical building - as student accommodation the doors are fitted with closers, so they keep slamming. The building is getting on in age and I guess you get what you paid for.

Very good location and great staff. The room (2 rm apartment) was well equipped, very reasonably priced and functional. Mattress could do with a replacement in one of the rooms. Great for visiting the Fringe or Tattoo

The room was of adequate size but for 2 people the beds where too small I’d say more of a queen size than double. Was the cheapest accommodation we could find during the fringe and in a good location for many of the acts.

The summer staff did their best to get the room as clean as possible but the room showed the signs of being a dorm room for most of the year.

Good enough

They are student digs, so naturally there's not much room, but there's enough for what you need. There are enough facilities on site, and it's central enough to be perfect for Fringe. Hot water went out on Saturday morning and it took until Tuesday to get fixed - but fixed it was. Plenty good enough for udget accommdation.

The staff is very good, no complaints there. The rooms are designed for student housing so the beds are small, uncomfortable, the chairs are uncomfortable, the window is terrible as a result the rooms get stuffy and hot. (Probably not a concern most of the year) But it is student housing at a cheap cost so what does one expect really. The location is great.
