Andrew

Good hotel. Room cleaning was hit and miss. We had to go and ask for towels and other items that were not replaced in the room after cleaning. The room and bathroom wasn't the cleanest we ever stayed in. The breakfast was of a good standard but warm plates for the hot food options would have helped to keep the food warm. The coffee was from a machine and ok. Good selection of breads and hot food and fruit etc. breakfast staff were good. The pool is very small and you have to reserve your place when busy. The location is a couple of minutes walk from the Royal Mile with a good bus service near the hotel to other areas. There is a sainsbury local shop at the back of the hotel and others were located a few streets away like piundland and coop. There are also restaurants and takeaways nearby.
