LouiseCheap and easy to get to
The room wasn’t very clean. Stains on drawers and dust round arms of chair and smudge marks in bathroom. We got a good price though so didn’t wish to complain. Didn’t realise we had a room in a flat. I must have miss…
ZacharyThe rooms are unbearably hot, even when the outside temperature is cool. they have fans at the front desk but availability is limited and even with them it is horribly uncomfortable to sleep.

Questions about Destiny Student Holyrood - Campus Accommodation
What time is check-in and check-out at Destiny Student Holyrood - Campus Accommodation?

Does Destiny Student Holyrood - Campus Accommodation allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.

Does Destiny Student Holyrood - Campus Accommodation have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does Destiny Student Holyrood - Campus Accommodation have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
Can I check in late at Destiny Student Holyrood - Campus Accommodation?
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 3:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
