No elevators-goodluck with your luggage. Dated. Shower drain not draining. Cleaning product or air freshener right as you open the front door is extremely offensive.

Bed- OK Breakfast-Avg WiFi - Awful. Dont plan to use Poorly renovated from an older building. Bathroom and plumbing were horrendous. Toilet would not flush. It was very old. Shower was broke, cheap fixtures. Way over priced. Have stayed at many hotels in Scotland and this was the worse one. Would not go back or recommend.

Good base to explore area

We booked a 3 night stay as a base for a trip up to see friends and go to a gig in Edinburgh. Good road access, however, only 3 disabled spaces, which could be better, especially at peak times and much of the remaining car park is on an angle except the disabled bays and beyond. If you have mobility issues, first floor rooms are accessed by stairs, no lift so be aware! Reception staff were helpful and friendly, Lee was especially helpful with some great travel and parking hints for us to access the gig better. Breakfast was basic hot & cold offerings with limited options but acceptable. Only one hot drinks machine was an issue with waiting, ran out of coffee beans quickly which staff addressed immediately. No flow to the breakfast system meant that people were crowded in areas near drinks machines and toaster. Again, staff were excellent and hard working. Room was clean and comfortable, relatively quiet area. Our shower bracket fell off the tiles when I carefully moved it to direct the head where needed. The clip had rusted. Reported it to staff who apologised for not being able to address the issue until Monday, which was not a problem and did not affect the shower or usage. I would use the hotel again.
