edinburgh uni accommodation recommendations

hi i was wondering if anyone had any opinions about these accommodations, I am trying to choose my top 5.
Ideally I want a self-catered accommodation not too far from george square (like 15 mins max walking is great). i don't mind ensuite or shared bathroom and will put down a mix of both.

The ones i'm fairly sure about are:
- salisbury court
- deaconess

the others i'm deciding between are:
- morgan court
- mylnes court
- darroch court
- fraser court
- hermit's croft
- nicolson street
- south clerk street

if anyone has opinions about any of these or suggests any others let me know! thank you:smile:

Hi i would say:
Salisbury Court is really nice choice and so is Deaconess.
Nicolson Street is insanely close though!
South Clerk Street great area, easy walk
Hermit’s Croft very close + good value
Darroch Court close but older
Fraser Court too far
Morgan Court farther and my friends have mixed opinions on it
Mylnes Court slightly far, old building, noisy area
