Hotel was clean, rooms were spacious. The toiletries provided were great quality! Breakfast was good and reasonably priced. Could have done with a bit more choice. Right near the bus stop which was a 25 minute spin into the heart of Edinburgh. Staff were helpful. WiFi was a bit dodgy and there were occasional loud noises during the night.
