Excellent, friendly check-in by Katie, who checked that I'd been allocated a room away from the lifts and toilets (because those rooms are always noisy). The shower rooms in Grant House have had a refurb since my last stay, but the shower cubicles are still tiny. Usually I use the shower over the bath instead but the bathroom on my floor was out of order, which was a shame. Good stay otherwise.

"Preis-Leistung Verhältnis top!"

9.0

Die Lage ist super, nur wenige Minuten mit dem Bus zu Old Town. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Zimmer war groß (Doppelzimmer mit Bad) und sauber. Frühstück war eine große Überraschung, viel mehr Auswahl als in den vergleichbaren Unterkünften.

"Leuke uitvalsbasis naast Arthur's Seat, ver lopen naar centrum"

7.0

Arthur's Seat is heel dichtbij. Ontbijt is heel uitgebreid. Niet zo duur en een prima uitvalsbasis tijdens je verblijf in Edinburgh.

Locatie is vrij ver van het centrum, het is best een stukje lopen. Gelukkig gaan er wel bussen vanaf en naar het centrum. Aantal faciliteiten die normaliter wel worden gebruikt door studenten zijn nu dicht, maar je kunt wel verzoeken indienen bij de receptie als je iets nodig hebt. Het is een vrij overweldigend groot complex, af en toe wat onoverzichtelijk en het kan erg druk en daardoor rumoerig zijn door enorm veel uitwisselingsstudenten en andere groepen mensen die hier overnachten.

"Für die Verhältnisse in Edinburgh ein gute und halbwegs bezahlbare Art zu übernachten."

8.0

Das Frühstück war sehr reichlich und lecker.

Die Wegbeschreibung zur Rezeption könnte etwas genauer sein, wenn man von der Bushaltestelle kommt.
