The breakfast was savoury and with vegetarian sausages, the staff was accommodating and amicable. Its location was great and lovely in a wonderful cafe almost next door.
Wi-Fi was quite slow, made me a little nervous.

Everything was nice, had a lovely stay for one night. We enjoyed small twin room provided with a lovely view, functional bathroom, as for instance. The location seemed stunning to nearby attractions. Moreover, it's really close to the Centre, Arthur's Seat or the Braids, buses, and the airport.
