Excellent location and practical setup
practical setup public transport spacious room
I appreciated the practical setup and thorough execution in my superior quadruple room ensuite room 7. the facilities met my needs. the location proved superb with public transport options close by. THE tram service was very convenient. i found the room spacious enough for my family of four.
i encountered an issue regarding the thin ceiling in my assigned room. i could distinctly hear every footstep from the room above, and sometimes it sounded like thunder. the noise disrupted my sleep several times . there was also no wifi password supplied, and my messages were not answered.

Excellent stay on Leith Walk
convenient access public transportation tram stop coffee machine
The location was excellent with convenient access to public transportation. The tram stop just outside provided a direct route to both the city center and the airport. I found numerous nice bars and cafes within a few hundred meters. The room had a coffee machine and a hairdryer, great.
The walls seemed a little thin, so I occasionally heard noise from neighboring rooms.

excellent location super clean room useful amenities
the location is awesome. trams and buses stop right outside the door and it makes getting around super easy. the room was super clean. plus, i had a tv, wifi, fridge, and a coffee machine, so convenient.
the main gate is directly on the street, so when you put the code in, it bangs. it felt more exposed than i liked.

Decent Stay with a Few Drawbacks
comfy bed nice sized room coffee machine warm room broken blind streaming tv
The room was a nice size. The bed was comfy. A fan kept me cool during the night. The coffee machine worked great and water was in the fridge.
The room was too warm. The blind did not go up. There was a TV. Streaming required extra payment though.
