Solid stay near transportation
cheap location adequate room advantageous location easy reach
this lodging is a conveniently cheap location if you plan to be out most of the time. the room was just adequate for two guests and it was very basic. the hotel's location is advantageous for quick city visits. waverly station, the bus station, shops, and restaurants are within easy reach.
The single overhead light in the room wasn't ideal. A smaller lamp would have improved the space. the floor was also quite slippery, so caution is needed whether wearing shoes or not.
Location
9/10
This location is ideal, especially since a tram stop is right outside the building. It provides direct access to the airport. a tesco store across the street is very convenient. the location simplifies transportation.
Rooms

fantastic stay!
tram station great location
The tram station is right outside. princes street is only a few stops away. the room was clean and quiet. it had a perfect size. I used it as a base to sleep and store things while i explored. the location is GREAT!!!
i could hear doors slam. ear plugs helped. the windows are difficult to open more than a crack. the whole building felt warm, and others also commented on the temperature.
Dining
9/10
several restaurants with different cuisines are nearby. i noticed an indian restaurant, too. the location makes it easy to try various places. the options made finding a spot for dinner simple.

convenient location helpful staff
The tram stop was just outside. It was easy to get around. The staff was helpful, and I could use an app to do laundry onsite.
The shower drain was a little slow.

great location kitchenette access helpful staff
i loved that the location was great! it was just opposite a tram station. having a kitchenette in the room was very useful, and i appreciated the laundry room access. the staff were lovely and helpful!
the room faced the main road and tram stop. it got very noisy. i think better soundproofing is needed.
