8/10
The hotel is located close to some key sightseeing like the Greyfriars Bobby and kirkyard as well as shops and restaurants. It's right across from a University of Edinburgh campus and there's a Starbucks and a Sainsbury's about a block away.
Breakfast items are the same every day, but there are ample options to choose from and the coffee machines are available 24/7 as is the laundry room. They even have cold cuts and a variety of breads to make to-go sandwiches for the day or to save some for an afternoon snack. The room had a mini fridge, a microwave oven, and a dishwasher. We were busy sightseeing, but we were able to have a few dinners in and save some money.
There were items from previous guests left under the pull out couch, so the room didn't seem thoroughly clean, but when we brough it to their attention, they took care of it right away.
The mattresses had pads that looked lumpy, but the beds were comfortable.
Overall, while some things things could be improved, the casual environment made our stay comfortable. We were well fed to start our day, and we were able to wash our clothes halfway through our vacation, which was crucial when packing light.
