Sakura Edinburgh Guest House

Terrible and damp basement room with a broken door lock, horrible smell, and poor condition overall. The television cable was cut, the private toilet was a shared, dirty toilet down the corridor and the shower was unusable (the gaps were hanging out of the wall). The walls are thin, I had a window looking into the hallway, and the place felt like a dive with the owners clearly just pocketing the money and putting into their own pockets, with no investment in maintaining the place. Wouldn’t recommend for business or leisure. Was extremely uncomfortable and would rather sleep under the rail bridge than here again.

I liked it was near the city centre. I didn't like the noisy front window (garbage keeper, pub)

Budget stay. Not my cup of tea. The place was very dated. My room was in the basement, but it did have a window that looked up into a courtyard. The host was super accommodating and very nice and promised that the four keys that I had to keep track of would be eventually replaced with an updated card system.

The owner was very helpful, and met us at the property, even though we were early. He responded well when we messaged him. The room was nothing fancy, but good value for the money. The main issue we had was location. It was right across the street from a bar, and since our room was right beside the street, it was a bit noisy outside and in as well, till things calmed down.

Rooms below ground level , you could smell the damp. All locks liked they were going to come away in your hand. TV aerial was a naked cable with some blue tack on the end, did not connect to TV so unable to use TV

Even though during booking there was statement that room has private bathroom, toilet was on the second floor (room on the 1) and shower in opposite from the room part of the first floor, room was cold and not spotlessly clean, it's noisy every time when someone going down and up stairs.

The place was damp, smelly with cracked bathroom walls & a centipede in the toilet!

For the price point of the property you have to go in with certain expectations, I had these expectations altered during my stay, the room was clean, the bed was comfy and the host was very kind and helpful. I specifically stayed in the Double Room with King Bed and ensuite and cant fault anything.

Quiet good access to the City spots

Comfortable room, clean shared bathroom facilities.
