ka ho

We arrived at 15:10 but the room was not ready. I was told that they want to make sure our room is perfect so need little more time . I was also told that I could just sit and wait until it's ready but the staff did not say nor trying check when the room will be ready. So we decided to come back later and the staff rang me about 20 mins later saying our room is now ready.

Simplesmente impossível dormir com a equipe de limpeza abrindo e fechando a porta em frente ao meu quarto (547) fazendo um barulho absurdo desde cedo. Falta de respeito com o hóspede que está tentando descansar. Inadimissivel isso em um hotel

Disliked: Amenities
Good location, comfortable bed and liked the reclining bed. All positives and a lot of thought on space saving. Unfortunately needs some TLC, some plugs didn't work, shower leaked and no pressure from handheld. Although free coffee/tea 5 floors below, could have done with a kettle in room. Extortionate price for snacks and drinks in mini shop. Not a fan of sink in main room and not privacy for toilet and shower, all part of main room with glass doors and screens. Prefer traditional ensuite B&B.

Everything from hotel location, check in, room facilities was spot on. Only problem we had was our room 334 location which was next to the landing doors which seemed to constantly bang throughout the night. We would definitely stay there again but ask for a room away from any set of doors.

Yotel EDI is located just on the outskirts of the new city part. Its about 20-25 min walk into the old part (Royal Mile etc), but is incredibly close to the shops (Princes St). There is a Tesco Express, Greggs & Costa all within 3-5 min walk from the hotel for inexpensive breakfast or snack options. However, the hotel breakfast is good value and freshly restocked. Staff have all be really friendly and pleasant and helpful. The walk into the main parts of the city is very easy - so I would definitely stay here again.
