Brilliant set up.
Good for festival stay. Convenient for buses to venues & walkable for some. Excellent breakfast.
Rooms slightly in need of refresh. The shower cubicle for example needed some work.

Great place to stay - great location.
I have stayed here many times and it is a great place to stay. Comfortable rooms, great breakfasts, great atmosphere in festival season with so many participants as well as visitors to the festivals staying there. Good transport links and easy walk into the heart of the city. Arthurs seat right by you is just the icing on the cake. Staff always helpful and friendly.
There was a fire door on my landing that was not closing properly. It may have been because the lift broke on the second day so a lot of people were propping it open hard to get their cases down the stairs. I reported it most days and when I left it was still not fixed. I was concerned that the high risk around a fire door not closing properly in the situation when a fire happens was not understood by some people. Some staff however were very aware how serious it was and kept reporting it. At one point it was listed as fixed - and had to be logged again. I went through it a few times a day every day and it was not fixed on any day. This is the first time in many many visits however that I have ever had a complaint.

Very solid option for a private solo stay at Fringe - clean, comfortable room and decent location
A good choice for a solo stay at Fringe Festival - about as good as you can expect in terms of price to quality if you want to avoid hostels and shared bathrooms. Very close to Arthur's Seat, reasonably close to Old Town (bus or walking) and accessible by bus to places farther afield like Craigmillar Castle. The room was comfortable (the bed especially), clean and spacious. Super-fast wifi. Friendly staff, and option to keep your bags at the desk after checkout or before checkin.
I think everything is pretty well explained - don't expect daily cleaning, etc. Shower flooded a few times but nothing catastrophic.
