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

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.

Aside from a gross shower curtain, the place was clean and staff were friendly. The room was pretty spacious, although the bed was a little uncomfortable. Overall, the price was right and the location was great!

Decent place to stay for a night or two. Great price. Great location with bus stops near by and walking distance from the train station. Easy check in and check out. It’s slightly annoying you have to walk through a corridor to get to the toilet/bathroom & the facilities could be cleaner.

Absolutely terrible. Would not recommend that anyone stay here.

10/10

The staff at Sakura guest house did a great job of providing for me. The room was large and comfortable. The bathroom was in a different room off the hallway but was private, for my use only. Great value; I would stay here again.

The place was ell situated for my reason to be in Edinburgh, but the room I was given was in the basement and only 3 feet wide!. It was terrible.

Great social area, no parking, rooms are ancient, no one onsite for our check-in, phone and wait....
1-night trip

6/10

Check in process not easy as time needs to be arranged and I then arrived 20 mins earlier than expected (takes proprietor about 5-10 mins to arrive from point of contact). Room could do with some updating, felt like student digs with some mould on shower curtain, ikea furniture missing parts, doorhandle not working, crumbs under bed etc. However, £90 per night at short notice when all other options (other than 10 person dorms) were >£300. Location very convenient too.
