在愛丁堡大學霍爾山校區，環境安靜，住宿體驗特別好，推薦。到市內公交車多，在國協游泳館這一站，很方便。

The room was nice but a bit crowded. The bathroom had a sliding wooden door. The steam from showering would spread throughout the room and it was quite humid. The coffee machine didn't work. The location was a bit remote but there was a bus stop nearby. The front desk was very friendly. I don't know what went wrong and a room was not booked at all. The front desk was very patient and helped solve the problem.
