Good location. A little scruffy and dated in places (decor) but hotel perfect for needs. Welcoming, clean and tidy. Nice breakfast. Easy parking. Not walkable to Edinburgh centre but easy 40 minute bus ride. Bus stop is just outside hotel.

Unique hotel with old world charm. Friendly staff...our only issue was the broken heater in our bathroom that was on both days and scalding hot which radiated into the room.beautiful view from the terrace not so much from our room which faced the garbage bins...but overall a pleasant enough stay.
