Best location for Edinburgh
Pros:

Excellent location. Friendly staff.

Cons:

Bar area was small and too crowded during our stay. Euro’s don’t use washcloths for some reason. I asked multiple staff and a few didn’t know what they were. TV’s don’t cast and not much programming for the evening when you’re winding down.

Prima hotel, aandacht voor schoonmaak
Pros:

Het vriendelijke personeel en de locatie

Cons:

Schoonmaak. In ijskast stond nog open blikje. Na melding concierge snel opgelost. Veel stof overal, goed zichtbaar door keuze zwarte meubelen en in moesten we badkamer vloer dweilen door ongelukje en douchemat was zwart dus dweilen kan ook beter.
