Good value for money. Will return.
Pros:

Compact room, well decorated, very clean, Storage limited, due to size of room. OK for 1-2 nights baggage but not very suitable for cases.

Bed very comfortable. Limited space meant 1 small bedside table and reading lamp at one side only of the bed.

Shower room recently redone, good shower, very clean.

Carvery dinner offered good choice of hot cooked dishes. Very nice desserts. Staff friendly, helpful and efficient.

Large carvery selection at breakfast. Limited selection for those who do not wish a cooked breakfast.

Located in shopping area of Corstorphine, Edinburgh: Good car park and plenty of buses available.

Cons:

As above

Pleasant experience and we would be happy to come back here.
Pros:

We were at the hotel from 10 to 15.3.26. This accommodation has a great location halfway between the airport and the city center, the bus stop to the airport is 500m from the hotel and the bus stop to the center is right in front of the hotel. The room was simple but perfectly adequate. Our windows faced the street, but the sounds from the street were quite muffled and did not disturb us at all. We really appreciated the cleanliness (especially the very clean bathroom) and the possibility to make tea or coffee with milk in the room.

We were really pleased that the room was pleasantly warm and the bathroom always had enough hot water from the shower. We did not use the restaurant in the hotel, because we stayed outside the hotel all day, but the guests in the restaurant looked very satisfied. The hotel had very nice staff and we want to thank them for accommodating our special requests and storing our suitcases on the last day after checkout.

Cons:

What would make the stay even better:
1) at least a small closet or shelves in the room (our room was adapted for wheelchair access, we understand, but a closet under the TV or in the corner would definitely fit)
2) better toilet paper (nothing is saved on the thin one, because it is used more)
3) a toilet brush in the bathroom would be useful (for cleaning the toilet if necessary)

Was ok.
Pros:

Meals were easy, as bar/restaurant downstairs.

Cons:

Car park quite small & is used for in-house guests staying overnight & also for guests to bar/restaurant, so was very hard to get one of the small car spaces. Access for cars coming in & going out sometimes hard, as building is on a very busy main road. Check in is in the bar area. No lifts for upstairs rooms, which is difficult when carrying large bags.

Great 3 nights stay in Edinburgh.
Pros:

Great location and staff were friendly. Good sleep but we always seem to get the bedroom above the bins so when they get emptied it’s very noisy.

Cons:

Shower was very small and bath mat was wet when we arrived but it had been rolled up ready for use. Not much hanging space for clothes.
