    I loved the location of Destiny Student - Cowgate, as it was right in the heart of the festival. The staff was extremely helpful and pleasant throughout my stay. The shared kitchen was spacious and convenient for preparing meals. Despite being a student accommodation, the room had its own shower and toilet, which was a plus. The large shared kitchen was also a great feature. I highly recommend this hotel for a short stay during the festival.

    My apartment was decent not far from transport and attractions and restaurants and various cafes and restaurants. The staff here were amazingly nice. The bed was very lumpy, even so I loved the place.

    Location was bustling, it´s a pity.
