heavy case cold room
The room had a coffee machine which was a nice touch.
There was no lift which wasn't great. My case was heavy. The bathroom design made it a cold room.

hard bed small cups
I found some issues . The coffee cups in the room resembled thimbles. I nearly packed a mug. The bed seemed like sleeping on a plank. The pillows seemed filled with air. Breakfast certainly did not justify its cost. I should have grabbed a pastry elsewhere..

Really good Stay in City Centre
spacious room beautiful decor great quality
My room was spacious and clean. It had great views of Princes Street. The room's decor was beautiful, and it was surprisingly quiet. Breakfast included many choices and the quality was great.
I noticed there was no lift available. This was a little difficult with heavy luggage.

Mixed Experience. Issues with Cleanliness and Service
artificial scent visible stains
The location proved convenient to nearby attractions.
The corridor had a strong, artificial scent from air fresheners. This was like an attempt to mask deeper issues, I suspect. Stains were visible on the curtain casings. and furniture. The toilet flush only worked after multiple attempts. My bank alerted me to a declined charge after checkout that the hotel denied initiating. This left me frustrated.

large room gorgeous bathroom great staff small cups hard bed soft pillows
Our room was beautiful and large. The bathroom was gorgeous, it was so romantic. The staff at breakfast were great. They helped each other, offering breaks and coffee. I saw the management respected their staff.
I found the coffee cups in the room very small. I wished I'd brought a mug for my morning coffee. It would have been lovely. The bed was hard. The pillows were too soft. I know these are personal preferences though.
