Emplacement pas loin de l'aéroport (pratique), mais pas bon rapport qualité/prix!
Pros:

Le personnel à l'accueil est très professionnel et accueillant, rien à dire.
Mais c'est le seul point positif de cet hôtel.
Pas de souci avec la navette entre l'hôtel et l'aéroport, elle fonctionne bien 24H/24. A l'aéroport, celle-ci se trouve au "Parking coach" (150m après la station de tram en s'éloignant de l'aéroport), a l'arrêt 10.

Cons:

La salle de bain était propre et la chambre globalement aussi.
Par contre la moquette sent très mauvais.
Pas de climatisation dans les chambres.
La lit-canapé n'est franchement pas terrible.
Pour le prix (très élevé) on s'attend à de meilleures prestations!

Agradable y práctica
Pros:

El personal muy amable, buen desayuno y abundante.
Estando separado de la ciudad (pero muuuy cerca del aeropuerto) tiene lanzadera al aeropuerto que enlaza con Edimburgo cada media hora.

Cons:

Necesita un repaso más pronto que tarde: moqueta, pintado y mobiliario.
