Sweat box, good value for money

Room was fine, clean and reasonable size. Extremely hot though, windows barely open - quite uncomfortable. Good value for money

Local limpo seguro e confortável …. Localização boa (mas não excelente) e em 10 minutos a pé está no centro histórico de Edimburgo. Supermercado ao lado do hotel. Há um centro de fitness bem justo e bom dentro do estabelecimento.
