Freundliches Quartier für eine Nacht
Pros:

Wir sind aufgrund der Verspätung unseres Fluges erst sehr spät angereist und wurden trotzdem sehr nett empfangen. Die Bar war noch geöffnet, Essen gab es nicht mehr aber Cider und Crisps - das reichte.

Cons:

Die Treppen sind sehr steil. Das war für uns kein Problem, sollte aber in der Beschreibung der Unterkunft erwähnt werden. Ältere oder Gäste mit Handicap könnten Schwierigkeiten bekommen.

Fijn hotel met zeezicht, en zicht op Edinburgh
Pros:

Ontbijt: We kregen een menu, waaruit we konden kiezen, en dat was heerlijk. Het Schotse ontbijt, en de eggs Benedict waren prima!
De het grote bed was heerlijk: goede matras, breed,... Heel aangenaam.
Een ruime kamer, maar: mét zeezicht! We konden Edinburgh zien liggen aan de overkant: fantastisch! Ook een bezoekje aan het strand, was makkelijk en heel dichtbij! Heel fijn ook, dat we ter plaatse een avondmaal konden nemen, dat trouwens echt lekker was!

Cons:

Het bed voor onze zoon was minder aangenaam om op te slapen: smal, en geen makkelijke matras.
Het hotel lag niet onmiddellijk op onze reisroute, maar was wel redelijk makkelijk bereikbaar. Je hebt de keuze om de route te nemen, die het kortste is, maar die is ook vrij steil: spannend wel. De andere route is mooi en comfortabel.
