Cons:

Las almohadas que son muy altas pero eso es gusto personal.
La pileta climatizada con agua fría me sorprendió, bajamos un paso en la escalera y nos volvimos para atrás, fuimos a buscar relax después de un día intenso y estaba lleno de gente gritando y el agua fría.

Wonderful staff, very comfortable room

Bad wifi and no status
Pros:

Here now and the wifi is non existent although advertised as high speed. Cannot connect unless in the hallway. Titanium status was not recognized a checkin or at all. Lights flickering in hotel room. Would not repeat my stay here. This hotel does not meet Marriott standards.

Sehr angenehme Betten - wenn man gerne auch 10min länger zu Fuß ist eine sehr gute Lage.
Pros:

Die Betten waren sehr gut.

Cons:

Die Putzfrauen hatten unsere Pyjamas einfach aufs Bett geworfen- war nicht so freundlich. Aber sonst war das Personal sehr bemüht- sowohl beim Frühstück als auch bei der Rezeption.

Idealny na city break
Pros:

Lokalizacja super. pokój duży z kanapą i fotelem, więc można przysiąść w pokoju po zwiedzaniu i nie trzeba iść do baru lub restauracji. Rano chodziliśmy na basen (całkiem duży) i saunę, co świetnie przygotowuje do kolejnego dnia zwiedzania Edynburga. Obsługa bardzo serdeczna i uśmiechnięta.

Cons:

Hotel jest trochę stary i to widać we wnętrzach. Jedzenie ogólnie było ok, ale ostatniego dnia wieczorem po zamówieniu przystawek w barze trochę się pochorowaliśmy.

Nice hotel in Edinburgh
Pros:

I liked the room size, the breakfast and the location.
Also, the restaurant staff is very kind and friendly.

Cons:

I didn't like that the room was a wheelchair accessible room, as the bathroom was very different from what I booked.
Also, I've asked for a quiet room, and got a room connected to another with a wall door (so we could hear everything on the other side... Not very quiet).
I also didn't like that they pretended to give me an upgrade in a better room: the room was a double, but actually less comfortable vs what I booked
