Simplesmente impossível dormir com a equipe de limpeza abrindo e fechando a porta em frente ao meu quarto (547) fazendo um barulho absurdo desde cedo. Falta de respeito com o hóspede que está tentando descansar. Inadimissivel isso em um hotel

Disliked: Amenities
Good location, comfortable bed and liked the reclining bed. All positives and a lot of thought on space saving. Unfortunately needs some TLC, some plugs didn't work, shower leaked and no pressure from handheld. Although free coffee/tea 5 floors below, could have done with a kettle in room. Extortionate price for snacks and drinks in mini shop. Not a fan of sink in main room and not privacy for toilet and shower, all part of main room with glass doors and screens. Prefer traditional ensuite B&B.

Everything from hotel location, check in, room facilities was spot on. Only problem we had was our room 334 location which was next to the landing doors which seemed to constantly bang throughout the night. We would definitely stay there again but ask for a room away from any set of doors.

Yotel EDI is located just on the outskirts of the new city part. Its about 20-25 min walk into the old part (Royal Mile etc), but is incredibly close to the shops (Princes St). There is a Tesco Express, Greggs & Costa all within 3-5 min walk from the hotel for inexpensive breakfast or snack options. However, the hotel breakfast is good value and freshly restocked. Staff have all be really friendly and pleasant and helpful. The walk into the main parts of the city is very easy - so I would definitely stay here again.

Room 010. Basement room. Constant noise when main automatic door opened. Toilet very small, heared rail in toilet did not work. No where in shower to hang towel. The plug in basin did not work, unable to shave. Lighting in main area poor (no natural light).If you go to toilet in night had to switch on main light. Shower door did not shut. Coffee machine in bar only gave you a couple of options and mugs which were in the clean pile were dirty including one with lipstick on. Excess heat coming from cupboard with fridge in. On the positive, the reception staff, very good, and the bed was comfortable and the room clean

Our stay at YOTEL Edinburgh was very enjoyable. We were two couples, one couple slept on the main bed and the other on the sofa lounge. We felt there was enough room for the time we were in our room. We liked the location, nice and convenient to everything. We caught the Airlink from the airport and it was about a ten minute walk from the closest bus stop, which wasn’t too bad. The area felt safe and was very nice to walk around, easy to get to all the main attractions. There are plenty of dining and shopping options in the area. The staff were super friendly and welcoming, the accommodation was nice and clean. The only drawback we felt was the bathroom door, or the lack-of, as there wasn’t one. With two couples it becomes a little difficult. You can work around it easy enough. Overall it was a great stay and we would highly recommend this place.

The shower is not well insulated which lead to a ton of water coming out of the shower on the floor. We had to use several towels to dry up the water that would spill out from the cracks. Also there was a horrible stench of B.O. in the lobby, and it was not an isolated incident.
