Good enough

They are student digs, so naturally there's not much room, but there's enough for what you need. There are enough facilities on site, and it's central enough to be perfect for Fringe. Hot water went out on Saturday morning and it took until Tuesday to get fixed - but fixed it was. Plenty good enough for udget accommdation.

Good base camp for fringe festival. Centrally located - quite basic given it is student accommodation, but suitable for a short stay.

Kiln housing.

We didn’t have a top sheet or blanket when we arrived. The space was fine, a bit spartan but enough equipment for two. Closer to many of the events at the festival. Could use a bit of art on the walls. Drainage in the shower was poor. Courtyard was a bit noisy especially on a weekend night, if you know why fat I mean. Staff was great, friendly and helpful. I’d go there again but I’m not sure my partner would.

The staff is very good, no complaints there. The rooms are designed for student housing so the beds are small, uncomfortable, the chairs are uncomfortable, the window is terrible as a result the rooms get stuffy and hot. (Probably not a concern most of the year) But it is student housing at a cheap cost so what does one expect really. The location is great.
