8.6/10 Excellent! (1,010 reviews)
Room was clean and well put together. The bed was a little hard/ squeaky but still good for a few nights stay. Good location near tram and a number of restaurants and cafes. Breakfast that I had included in my stay price was delicious and the dining room was quaint. Overall solid stay, would recommend.

It was fine. There were issues with the internet that I messaged the host about, but didn't get a response or resolution.

Parking is awful, we were lucky we got a space round the corner. It was a great location for our event at murrayfield but the sofa bed isnt an actual bed. Luckily we took our inflatable double bed but had to go to shop and get sheets and duvet cover for it. Fine for one night and a few hours sleep
