★★★★☆

A very good location made the stay easy, and the hotel was extremely clean, though it was also very warm. We found the setting fantastic, right in the middle of the Old Town and close to the Royal Mile, with pubs, restaurants, and shops nearby. Overall, everything was really clean, and the staff were super friendly and accommodating, even allowing us to switch to a private room without any issue.
