Stayed here a few times. This time i arrived and checked No problem the guy was really friendly Arrived at my room to drop my case off. On arriving back I found the room was cold. Went to shut the window and noticed there was no handle on the window. So it didn’t shut fully. Also the air con unit (I think that’s what it is) just above the front door was making an awful noise the majority of the night.

Very good internet and reasonably priced pub food, Carcery is a must try. The manager and staff were generally pleasant and helpful. There seemed to be a slight communication issue with housekeeping, the bed wasn’t made, and only the tissues were replaced while the used cups and glasses were left behind. It appears we may have needed to inform the team at the dining area directly. However, the staff were responsive and addressed our concerns once raised. Conveniently located near many restaurants. We parked at Dalmeny, free street parking and took a train yo Edinburgh city, just 2 stations away and around 20 min. Convenient if you have a car Very close to bridges, nice visit to Queenferry

Overall very good, would stay again

The bed here was very comfortable and much better than numerous Travelodges we've stayed in recently. Despite it being a twin turned into a double the join wasn't very noticeable and the mattress was very comfortable. The only gripe for me was the shower head did look aged and the drain in the wet room didn't clear the floor quickly enough so you're stood in 2inches of water by the time you've finished but grab bars in all the right places. As a wheelchair user I found everything very accessible and would stay again. You do need to go into the pub for check in and handing the key back. We didn't eat there but did plan to, maybe next time!
