Point A Edinburgh

"We in basement room 6 had very little space. Luckily we had no luggage . One side of the bed very close to the wall with no bedside shelf. The window and walls had good sound deadening. The shower room was fine very clean throughout. I did not find the mattress very comfortable. All in the small room choice was not good value."

"I stayed 2 nights in a window-less room. Initially it felt a bit claustrophobic, but it got used to it quickly. I cannot recommend the windowless rooms if you are actually there for a long time - it does get a bit stuffed in the air. The room is a double, but it's a very small room without a closet, so do not bring too big suitcases. The bed is a UK standard double, which I in my 100s of hotels in the UK have never tried before - its 190cm long, which is uncomfortable for me. I was only 1 person, so could sleep diagonally but had we been two people a 190x135 bed is simply too small. The room controls are all digital and lights up when you near them, and one set is built into the headboard - which was continuously activated when putting my arm over my head during sleep and thereby got a nice blast of blue light. Additionally, what I can only guess is the smoke sensor sent out green light in a repeating pattern, only to after 5 blinks to have one intense green flash for like the 6th - great when trying to sleep. "Ironing Room", or closet, had two irons. One did not work. The one that did work had black marks underneath and stained my white shirt. This could be prevented if the iron had water, as the inspirational poster in the room also suggests, but there is no water available! Location was nice, room was new and well maintained, breakfast standard continental. Staff was kind and helpful, and never had any bother. All in all, i will not book again, only because i cannot fit the bed."

"Great location, polite staff. My room was quite tiny but clean. I was comfortable but be warned it's more a place to rest and keep going rather than spend much time in the hotel."
