Check in staff were amazing. Hotel and room immaculate. From cleaning staff to restaurant staff all were very friendly. Only two little gripes The metal bar was missing from fridge door so couldn’t stand anything up After returning from the military tattoo it would have been nice to settle down and have a drink in the bar but it was closed - a thought for the future perhaps? Overall a great experience this is our third stay here and will always return

The room was clean, but there was an unidentifiable smell in the bathroom which was off-putting. Staff are friendly and accommodating. There is a couple of convenience stores and bus stops within a short walk. The lighting in the room was very dim which did make it hard to see some things.

Staff was pleasant and eager to help, from helping to get our bags into the building, giving a map to find low cost luggage, changing our room to one where we could use the elevator ( no elevator for first floor rooms) to calling a cab for the airport. Thanks
