Absolutely perfect experience. The two bedroom appt was perfect for our needs and was palatial compared to London. Super comfy beds and amenities. Perfectly located on the royal mile, just a few mins walk directly to the castle. Blew away our expectations, was the best hotel we stayed in during our 5 week trip around the UK.

A very well appointed apartment hotel in a quiet but central location. Good facilities including a kitchenette and washing machine. Reasonably spacious layout for a studio apartment. Large well designed bathroom with plenty of storage space. My only criticism was that the wooden floor felt a bit sticky underfoot as though it needed a good wash and when i looked under the bed to retreive a dropped item there was a build up of dust. Friendly young staff.

Just stayed 4 nights at Roomzzz. The rooms are lovely, modern and well appointed. The kitchen and appliances are great. The fridge is a decent size too. The staff are super helpful and it was great that the desk is staffed 24/7.
Laundry is located on two levels, they sell laundry pods at the front desk for 50p which is so handy. The front desk also sells some basic grocery items which is also convenient. Would definitely stay here again!
