Great location but a little off for the Edinburgh vibe
Pros:

Location is amazing! And the exterior and common areas (bar, library etc) were nicely designed to match old town Edinburgh which was great.

Cons:

Room was modern in a somewhat outdated way (felt a little like a cruise ship) and our window looked into an empty office building 30 feet away which obscured everything. Not sure what will happen if the offices are ever occupied.
