Nie wieder A&O in Edinburgh als Familie, meine Studentenzeit ist vorbei und für den Preis wäre ich als Student hier

Pros: Die zentrale Lage, ein kleines Bad für uns Cons: Der angepriesene Parklplatz 35 Pfund/ Tag Frühstück war ne Katastrophe- der Raum ist am Abend eine Bar und zum Frühstück riecht es noch so und ist dreckig.

Pros: 位置好 Cons: 楼下酒吧没日没夜吵,楼下酒吧音乐震天响,还有很多人聊天吵到半夜4点多,结果5点又开始,中午也吵。两天的晚上,白天都无法睡觉,戴耳塞都不行。简直和睡在吵闹的大街上一样,没有一刻安宁。真是花钱受罪。

Très bon emplacement et béer garden agréable c est tout

Pros: Emplacement stratégique au cœur de la ville Service de bagagerie disponible avant de prendre la chambre et après l avoir rendu Literie correcte Cons: Les photos des chambres ne correspondent pas à la réalité Le petit déjeuner est sommaire et mal ré approvisionné. Repas du soir : attente interminable (40 minutes pour une pizza et des nuggets ) Sanitaire et coin salle de bain négligés ( il y avait des cheveux dans les bondés de l évier )

Nice clean hotel in a good location, but with room for operational improvement

Pros: Nice location, cool bar, clean rooms. Cons: Check-in was way more arduous than needed. One is "requested" (in reality required) to pre-check-in via smartphone, even if you go to the check-in desk. Defeats the purpose of a check-in desk.

Great start into exploring Edinburgh if you do not need fancy

Pros: Extremely helpful and responsive staff. Outstanding location for Edinburgh Old town Cons: Breakfast options a bit limited. Quite pricy for what you get (to note that we stayed during peak festival season).
