The hotel was clean and the staff friendly but the area was very run down. It was close to Royal mile and easy to walk to all attractions.

Great space for the price. Comfortable, spacious, and well located. However, the apt was very warm since you cannot open any windows and it was 50-60 degrees Fahrenheit when I was there. Thankfully, they provided a fan which I had running 24/7 when I was there.

It’s a nice place to stay with peaceful and beautiful environment. The hotel room is clean. One thing to improve is the shampoo and bath gel are running out without replacing. We had to go to lobby to ask for refill. It’s better to check and ensure all filled before guest check in.
