Комфортно.
Pros:

Чудове місце позташування. Комфортні ліжки. Тепло в номері - ми не разу не вмикали обігрівч, хоча погода була холодною. Особливо хочу відмітити якість води з крану. Вода дуже чиста, її можна пити. Чудовий вид на річку.

Pros:

La ubicación no está mal por el precio que tiene, la cama era cómoda y está al lado de un barrio muy bonito con un río.

Cons:

El hotel está para restaurar, mi habitación no tenía armario y no pasaron a hacer la cama ni llevarse las toallas usadas ni un día.

Good value hotel near the heart of Edinburgh.
Pros:

Staff were welcoming and helpful and the location suited us.

Pre check in and booking process was irrelevant as we still had to queue and check in when we arrived.
