Greyfriars Inn is friendly, good food, close to key locations, good value for money -as usual!
Pros:

Central for bus station and concert venue. Lively atmosphere.

Cons:

No lift to 3rd floor and being in our late 70s, stairs are a challenge for one of us. Also the Belhavens had a curious red liquid over the head.

Good place to stay
Pros:

The location is great and the price is good.

Cons:

The third floor does not have access by elevator so you have to carry heavy stuff up there. The air conditioning was not working so it was really hot!

Estuvimos muy cómodos.
Pros:

Está muy bien ubicado.
Debimos tener suerte porque nos dieron una habitación muy grande con una cama de dos metros y un buen colchón.
Estaba limpio y el personal fue amable.
Desayuno a la carta, con un pequeño bufé añadido con algo de fruta, cereales, yogur y algún dulce.

Cons:

Nada en particular
