"posizione ottima, hotel mediocre"

7.0

Posizione eccezionale, camera discreta, pulizia accettabile. Purtroppo moquette sintomo di scarsa igiene. Coperte non ben lavate. Bagno abbastanza spazioso

il prezzo che si paga p quello della posizione, veramente ottima. Le camere sono mediocri , i corridoi per accedere alle camere molto brutti con condizionatori portatili lungo il percorso.

"Good location; overly warm room; VERY firm bed"

8.0

The hotel is in the middle of Old Town, which was a great location for most of the things we wanted to do and see. Although it was cool outside, our room was overly warm, and we were unable to set the thermostat to cool. We were provided with a portable cooling unit, which helped. We also found the bed to be uncomfortably (painfully) firm, but that may be personal preference. Breakfast was excellent, and the staff were very courteous. Note that while the hotel is walking distance from Waverley Train Station, you will have to climb steps to get there, which may be difficult if you are carrying luggage.

"Nice time in Scotland"

10.0

Nice and cozy rooms, equipped with everything you need for your stay. A big plus for the espresso machine in the room. Excellent location. Friendly staff.

Breakfast is too expensive, so we didn't have it at the hotel.
