Very Good

The room was lovely and clean. I had a problem with the parking machine but the staff came over and helped me.
Breakfast was plentiful although I only had two slices of toast plus a coffee.
Well worth the visit.

Liked: Staff & service
This property is situated out of the city but is on a bus route which is very convenient.
Rooms very small but that seems to be all of UK & Europe, difficult to open luggage because of lack of space.
As a single traveller I managed but not sure how two people would get on.
We were given a disabled room/bathroom, I have no recollection of requesting that when I booked online. The room had a strange smell which was like one of those candles people burn to hide tobacco smoke
Chose a room with a city view. Really lovely view of the city. Added bonus was capturing a rainbow over the city on camera on our last evening. Conveniently located for the retail park. Good bus service into city centre.
Looks like a 70s office block but nicely fitted out inside and very helpful staff. View of the castle from our bedroom - polluted but that's Edinburgh for you ...
I booked two rooms. The first room was superb with two large beds. The second room had an awful smell - we dicussed this with the staff and they eventually moved us to another room with a sofa bed rather than a second bed.
I was staying with the two children in the first room. It was warm in the room so I put the air conditioning on when we went to bed. We had to switch it off as it was making an awful noise. The safety latch was also broken on the door.
Breakfast was good and staff in the restaurant were lovely.
Helpful staff, good breakfast. Easy bus connection to the center of Edinburgh. Some glitches: inside of teapot was disgusting. Room could use a second chair, so we could share a meal. We waited over 1 hour for simple order of fish and chips.
