Had warm stay for a wonderful weekend and the weather was really warm. The location was great for exploring this lovely area, just off most buses, a day ticket costing less than £5 and Edinburgh centre.

Standard room with a shared bathroom, had essentials required. The marvellous location was really close to Craigmillar Park Church. The hotel was in a really quiet area, really close to various attractions, many activities in the evening and Ben Doran. No complains at all, this was a very nice stay for a wonderful weekend.
Didn't like the staff, some of them were impersonal.

We did not want to leave and would like to stay here on the next trip. Clean hotel, liked to be adjacent to Edinburgh during the Wintertime as well as a nearby cafe thanks to great and quiet location. The venue was perfectly located only a short distance to Earthy Foods & Goods. It also was in Permit-Holder parks.
