Soggiorno a Edimburgo soddisfacente, albergo discreto. Molto deludente l'esperienza come cliente.
Pros:

Posizione ottima, colazione discreta, non è però un 5 stelle.

Cons:

Doppia prenotazione con Booking mal gestita e scarsa flessibilità da parte della struttura. Comportamento di Booking poco corretto nella gestione della situazione. Non prenoterò più con Booking.
