"Zona ottima consigliato"

10.0

Posizione, più che ottima. Da lì si arriva ovunque , sia a piedi che con i mezzi... collegamento perfetto da e per aeroporto . Staff molto attento e disponibile per colazione in camera se la partenza e l'escursione avviene molto presto e la sala colazione è ancora chiusa. Consigliato

Un po' scomode la scale con gradini piccoli che occorre fare fino alla reception, poi da lì ascensore, ma con le valige sono scomode.

"Absolut bästa läget i Edinburgh, Princes Street. Nära spårvagnen, Waverly St, shopping, bra pubar"

8.0

Rejäl skotsk frukost med blackpudding och haggis. STOR portion havregrynsgröt som man kunde beställa. (tips: dela en portion på två personer) Stekt ägg går att beställa. Mycket bra frukost!

Vårt rum saknade en sänglampa.

Clean rooms and helpful staff. Extremely easy to find as well. Popular sites within walking distance or a short uber.

Cleaning crew would turn off ac unit while I was gone so my room was always warm when I came back. It cooled down quickly again

Sehr gute Lage an der Princes Street. Alles gut zu Fuss erreichbar. Full Scotisch Breakfast war sehr gut. Personal freundlich. Panoramablick mit Princes Street und Royal Mile

Fenster nur im Bad zum öffnen gewesen. War stickig wenn die Sonne reinschien. Aber es gab ein Standventilator Es wäre schön gewesen wenn das Fenster gedämmt gewesen wäre. Es war doch etwas laut draußen in der Nacht
