Pros:

Room was very comfortable, though I could have done with an explanation on how to work the heating/cooling. Breakfast was good and staff, both at breakfast and dinner were very cordial and friendly. D

Loved my stay here, the room and bathroom were big and beautiful wish I’d had another night to stay, next time
Pros:

I liked how close it was to shops and the Edinburgh airport bus

Cons:

Noise from the bar downstairs since my room was on that side but it’s not a deal breaker and knew it would be happening
