“Royal Mile suites, billing dispute”
Old Town Chambers, Autograph Collection wins guests over primarily on location: mid-Royal Mile opposite a church, with attractions, the station and restaurants all walkable — though one guest advises taking the long road rather than the stairs with luggage. Families like the spacious suites with kitchens and washing machines, and bedding is called comfortable. The negatives are notable, though: one guest reported a deposit was not returned and an unexplained extra charge appeared, while others described an old-feeling building with poor soundproofing, many steps to some rooms, weak shower pressure, a sewer smell in one room, and breakfast that is ordered rather than a buffet.
