10/10 Excellent

"Great location!"

Moxy Edinburgh Airport

8/10 Good

"The property clearly aims for a youthful, modern, stylish vibe. It’s alright. Can’t beat the location if you need to be at the airport. Comfortable enough but falls short on functional necessities like bathroom countertop space and a desk. Breakfast has the basics but is nothing like amazing buffets I’ve encountered elsewhere. As a whole, the place feels a bit worn for its age, but still serving its purpose for now."
