The location was convenient, situated near the main station for trams, trains, and buses. The reception staff was helpful and available at all times which was great. The hotel provided free tea and coffee facilities right in the room.
The room and bathroom were not particularly clean. The bath needed a good scrub in some areas. There was also dust on the wide ledge behind the beds.

The location offered easy access to Haymarket train station. The staff were friendly and helpful . The room was clean, comfortable, and spacious. I felt the stay offered good value.
The hotel was somewhat worn and could benefit from updates. The bathroom lacked a door handle on the inside, and my partner had to close it from the outside. The carpet in the hallway had a bad smell, and an open cupboard was full of rubbish.
