ottimo
Pros:

Posizione ottima vicinissima alla parte vecchia, sempre tutto a piedi ma vicino anche a diverse fermate di pullman per andare in aeroporto. Hotel sempre aperto anche di notte c'è qualcuno in reception quindi comodo per voli che arrivano tardi a Edimburgo.
Letto comodo. C'è l'ascensore
