We'll be back
Pros:

The quiet soundproof room with comfortable bed is amazing, the walk-in shower has the right amount of water pressure to be utterly relaxing

Cons:

The breakfast is a tad hit and miss, it could be hotter overall.

That and that there's not enough instant coffee in the room are my only, minor, complaints

Fabulous hotel great family stay
Pros:

Fabulous hotel, staff friendly and very comfortable stay. Very easy to catch a number 25 bus into Edinburgh city. Our family room was great size and had the bonus of a bath and separate shower too.

Cons:

Only thing i would say is the pillows were big and didn't find them very comfortable but bed was fab.
