"A very little nice and charming hotel. Good breakfast and nice staff." - Anonymous
"Very nice and warm people. A bit noisy on the saturday night but there is double windows so if you close won't hear anything. Great place to go. In the best possible place." - Francisco Fortuno
"The themed rooms are great, there is no lift so this may not suit everyone. Had a brilliant stay, with a perfect location, right on the royal mile." - Anonymous
"Staff were friendly and approachable. However the " hotel " corridors and stairs were shabby with empty bottles left by previous guests. The room was interesting and the theme idea was good. However we had better breakfasts, cleaner facilities in cheaper B+B's in the city. We felt that this hotel did not represent good value for money." - Anonymous
