Great location and reception staff but thats where it ends….. Rooms are way too small with little facilities. Room attendants, made the bed and did little else…. Paid slightly under £300 for 2 midweek nights, Wouldn’t return,

Wouldn’t recommend for couples
Room was tiny. In order to make a hot drink you had to shut the door to the bathroom. Had to leave the tap running as no way to keep water in sink. No view. After 3 nights we were more than ready to move on. It is handy to train station and for 1 person would probably be ok. No fridge. Only continental breakfast available.

Great location
Amazing location, friendly staff, room was great and the bar area was lovely. Only thing I would say is the rooms were very hot and we couldn’t find a way of changing the temperature

8/10 Very Good

Good location to train station - ok stay.
Not sure why I was put into an accessible room - meant that there was no surface space for toiletries and the sink was very low and I am only 5ft 4. The pillows were extremely thick and hard and the room was boiling hot, couldn't work the in room aircon/fan. The bathroom sink was dirty with brown stains. Disposal cups and drinks stirrers as opposed to china cups and metal spoons. Seems very un eco-friendly. Good location to the trainstation

10/10 Exceptional

Simple but nice.
Welcoming staff, efficient checkin. Room was nice if a little lacklustre- the plain white textured walls felt a bit dreary. No mugs only paper cups which was a shame. I had a double which was actually two twins next to each other and i did sink into the middle dip a bit but generally a comfy bed. Double window system blocked out noise very well even though on a busy street opposite train station.

6/10 Good

Good points: the hotel and rooms are very clean, the bed is comfortable, the location is great and the staff are polite and friendly. Bad points: the room was very hot, with the air conditioning providing very little air. The window opens about 3-4 inches, but not much airflow from that, as the window is in a small courtyard facing other rooms (so no views at all either, although I was not expecting them). The room was very basic. The design/deco was not very welcoming (all walls plain white) and the room was quite small. There was no side tables, so telephone charging and water bottle (which we bought) had to be put on the floor. No water glasses, only some disposable cups for coffee/tea. The bathroom was very clean, but very small and no good pressure from the shower. Overall, I don't think it was good value.

Very central to the Royal Mile and Waverley train station. The room was small, but had everything we needed and nice quality bathroom fixtures. Breakfast was outstanding. Many cafes, restaurants, pubs and shops conveniently located nearby. It took the airlines three days to deliver our luggage and during that time the motel one staff was amazing. Very attentive and helpful and we certainly would come back.

Its ok
I had to return to reception to get the key activated which had not been done at check in, so slightly miffed. It would have been convenient to have a small fridge in the room at nearly £200 per night.
