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

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.

I was met with a very warm welcome by a happy and friendly Manager when i arrived at the hotel. The Manager took the time to show me to my room and to explain the facilities. The room was very clean, the large bed in my chosen room was very comfortable. The ensuite bathroom was lovely, the shower was electric so there was plenty of hot water. The toilet was very clean with a washbasin which had a full liquid soap dispenser. The room facilities included a comfortable chair to relax in plus Tea and Coffee making facilities with a good selection of tea's and coffee plus cream and sugar. Also a large bottle of Spring water and glasses was made available for my convenience. The room itself was well cleaned and to note the room smelled clean, with no nasty odours. A credit to the cleaning staff at the hotel. As a footnote on my very honest review here and to be very clear .... the room that i stayed in did have some tired furniture, but everything worked as it should and for the price that i payed i was more than pleasantly surprised....i was very happy. The hotel is in a great location with many local takeaways and restaurants nearby, a selection of handy nearby small shops plus supermarkets including Sainsbury's and the Coop. Bus stops within 5 minutes walking distance of the hotel, with buses every 5 to 10 minutes into Edinburgh if you don't fancy the 25 minute walk. All in all i was delighted with my stay in the hotel and would definitely recommend this to others.

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.

Could do better

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.

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.
