Excellent Edinburgh Area Location
This hotel is just a 10-minute drive from Edinburgh city centre, and there are plenty of shops and restaurants within 10 - 30 minutes walking distance. There is also a bus stop very nearby which offers unlimited rides to the main shopping/tourist area of Edinburgh, and it's just a small charge. If you follow the main road, you'll come out near Grey Friars Creek.

Well-Appointed Accommodations
Rooms and bathrooms are clean and cosy, with comfortable beds, and everything you need, including a nice shower and coffee/tea making facilities. They even add a touch of class with little chocolates on the bed upon your arrival.

Fantastic Hotel Staff
You'll be warmly greeted and welcomed when you arrive, and the great service just keeps on going from there. The staff at this hotel are friendly and helpful. Nothing is too much trouble. They are happy to order a cab for you or give advise on where to eat.

Breakfast Leaves Guests Wanting More
This hotel does not offer any sort of cooked or hot breakfast, only continental. Options are basic and somewhat bland. If you require something more substantive, you'll need to look for other nearby options.
negative:
Hotel Needs a Little TLC
This hotel is starting to show signs of age and wear and tear. Furniture is dated and a bit damaged, carpet is worn and not terribly cosy feeling, and wallpaper is starting to peel. You may also find other things like cracked tiles. Guests say it feels rather shabby, and there needs to be more attention to detail.
negative:
Poor Wi-Fi Signal
The Wi-Fi loses connexion every couple of minutes and takes a long time to reconnect.
