18 August 2010 James would recommend this property

Liked: Right in the heart of the new town and no curfew. Reception staff were friendly. Internet access worked well using cable left in room, if a little slow. Good cheap cafe round the corner for breakfast.

Disliked: It's soulless student accomodation and everything is very basic, albeit functional. I had some Spanish people come back from their night out at 3am and talk loudly in the corridor for over an hour and there was nothing I could do about it as reception is only open until 10pm. My room was not cleaned or made up during my 3-night stay but I suspect that is part of the deal.

Liked: No hotel goodies like tea/ coffee and a TV are here since it's university halls but very good value for money. Clean, bit of a maze to navigate but the halls feel very safe – five minute walk to Edinburgh Waverley station and ten minutes to the Royal Mile. Highly recommended.
