Lovely professional and friendly staff. Nice big room. Clean and modern. Lovely selection at breakfast. Thought bar meals were quite bland. Overwhelming air freshener smell in lovely but I am very sensitive to smell so maybe just me! Great location if you’re ok for a bit if a walk- we walked to the Royal Mile, Castle, Princes St easily and Dynamic Earth is literally across the road. All in all a great stay
