    It was an excellent place to stay and explore Grassmarket, located 300 metres away from the hotel. The hotel's location was central, in the centre. What's more, it was near to the tourist area as well as the airport.

    The double room was super clean and had everything we needed, like a kettle and even a mini fridge. the bathroom was right there, and it was all to ourselves. the staff were really nice; they let us check in early and stay a bit later when we left. 😊
