Sakura in Edinburgh

The rooms were pretty good. The bathrooms are tiny. The overall stay was quite pleasant. The host was nice and the place had a very homely vibe to it.

We use this hotel as a place for an in law to stay approx yearly. He loves the place, staff very pleasent, good clean rooms.

Ok place to stay, just within reasonable walking distance from old town etc. Clean and quiet room, but bathroom, even though not shared, was out in the hallway, which we were not informed of in advance. Beds a bit soft for my taste.

Very worth the cost, all toiletries are supplied besides toothpaste; the bathroom was however detached in a separate room off of the corridor. Slightly dated internal decor but nothing out of place for a B'n'B

Great for a couple of nights if it's a cheap night out in Edinburgh, room was clean and tidy. Bathroom was privet but off a shared corridor, had a lovely chat with some I bumped into whilst dripping wet from my shower. Good service. Easy.

The most dangerous place never seen in my life because of broken plugs and wires wrapped with sellotape. The first night there wasn't hot water either...a nightmare

I stayed here for a few nights at a cheap non-festival rate of £26 a night. The room was absolutely tiny, you had to crawl over the bed to get to the window. The advertised "garden view" was just a little glimps of some shrubbery through a basement window.The "private bathroom" consisted of a small toilet room across the hall, unlocked, and a shower room next to it, also unlocked and positively filled with mold. Due to the abundance of mold, I couldn't use the shower room at all, just opening the door made me cough and gasp for air. There's a sink in the tiny bedroom, which is usable for brushing teeth and a quick wash, but is surrounded by carpeting, so that's a bit odd.The room is reasonably clean and while you can hear every word your room neighbours utter, it was actually relatively quiet.All in all, it was acceptable for the low price I paid and for just three nights, but as it's quite more expensive during busier seasons, I'd advise to find a better place, especially if you're staying for longer than just a few nights.

Nice place, comfortable, good position. The private bathroom is not accessible directly from the room, but it's not problematic.It's quite and you can relax easily.

Nice hotel, very convient location and nice enough host.. The hotel itself is dated, hard push doors and shared shower and toilet facilities.. All in all a good enough place for a night or two.

Don't stay at this guest house. We had a terrible experience and I'm extremely disappointed. The rooms are quite dirty, there was mold all over the bathroom, and the owners are completely non-existent and unhelpful. If you have a room with a "private bath," it is not en suite, it is a separate room down the hall. There is no turn-over service, period. Everything is terribly outdated and in desperate need of maintenance and updating. The beds are full of uncomfortable metal springs and the pillows are flatter and worse than the ones you get on planes. The worst thing of all is that we returned to our room in the evening to a hallway filled with cigarette smoke (non-smoking hotel). We buzzed the owner and knocked on their door beginning around 7pm to try and have the issue resolved. No one was on site and no owner returned to the site the entire evening. We ended up giving up and going to bed to a smelly disgusting room around 10pm. We left the owner a note that we were bothered by the smoke and would really appreciate it if the situation were taken care of. Nope - nothing. No response, no action. Woke up at 8am the next t morning to smoke again. Came back to the hotel at night to smoke. The owners wouldn't even show their face for check-outs. They put a note in the entrance way that says just leave your keys here upon checking out. They take no responsibility or care over their facilities or guests. It was a terrible experience, the worst place we stayed our entire two weeks in England and Scotland. Stay away from this place at all cost. It should really be shut down and boarded up
