    Terrific location, very clean and comfortable accommodation, ensuite, and cheap quality wifi. Not only would I stay here again, but I don't want to stay anywhere else in Edinburgh. Has all the amenities and comforts of a hotel.

    Really enjoyed staying here. The self dinning area lights were slightly frustrating as kept switching off when sitting on couches.
