This hotel is funky and uncomfortable. Honestly, it seemed more like a hostel. Cons: Absolutely terrible lighting—especially the spotlight LEDs in the bathroom make it impossible to put makeup on. The bedside lamps were dim and wobbly because they were DESK lamps, not made for tiny bedside tables. Everything was just "dark" in general. The wallpaper was peeling off the walls, our shower leaked, and the bed was soooo uncomfortable. It was also really hot and the thermostat was worthless, so a gigantic tall fan was provided (at least!) There was also a very weird, very large curtain in the room, and I'm still not exactly sure what that was for, since there was already a blackout shade on the window? It's really just terribly designed/laid out. Pros: A bottle of Prosecco was provided. The location in Grassmarket is cool, near Victoria Street. The staff was nice. Breakfast next door was pretty good. However, I would have preferred better amenities over a free bottle of booze and a couple of candy bars.
