On Arriving at the property it didn’t look much but as we entered the hotel had a beautiful smell, the Staff were welcoming. Our room was beautiful and we had two towel swans on the bed with a note wishing my husband a happy birthday. The only thing that I didn’t like was the room got very cold at night and the road traffic woke us quite early. The Breakfast was super and there was a lot of choice.

This is a very good, quirky boutique hotel. The room was small-ish but nice. The TV suffered from poor communication from the remote control. A staff member did his best to resolve this, but it was still tricky.Generally the staff were very helpful and friendly. The location was very convenient for the Old Town, shopping and good restaurants.

Loved the size of the family room - 4 friends going to theatre which is 5 minutes away. Beds very comfortable but very high ! Very pleasant French man (think he was French, couldn’t have been nicer thank you. Only thing we would say would be better to have armchairs in room instead of chaise longues as they were too low for women of a certain age to sit on and get back up again! Tried to sit in bed but they were very high ! This is my second time in this hotel and certainly won’t be last. Thank you - Jean

The property is good overall and is in quite a good central location. The staff were all welcoming and helpful. Breakfast is nice and the dining room set up for breakfast is great. With all contenental breakfast there for you to choose what you want then a separate menu for hot food which the staff bring out. The issues I had with the property were that the bed was like a brick and I kept waking up with hip pain. The staff did not have any solution to the problem so I asked for an extra quilt to out on the mattress. We arrived back in our room after being out for the morning and the bed was made so I assumed someone had been in and put the quilt in the bed. However shortly later someon knocked on the door and handed us a quilt so we had to remake the bed ourself. The room we were in was spacious and had a bath and a shower in the bathroom but the bath was not for for purpose as the seal on the plug didn't work and the water kept draining out whilst you were sat in it. We also travelled with toddler and asked for a travel cot in the room. The cot was there and put up but also wants for for purpose because it was a wooden slab with a sheet on. No pillows, no blankets no mattress. So our son was in bed with us for the 3 night stay. Would expect the basics like the bed and the bath to be fit for purpose in a 4 star property.

The hotel is located centrally, close to the bus stops and shops. 10-12 mins walk to old town, prince street and others. However the condition of the property is not great, the walls have dirt marks, ceilings are peeling, chairs and carpets have permanent stains. The property needs a renovation. The hotel is manageably clean, however I had to remind staff I need a thorough clean on D2/D3. Breakfast is lovely. Nice and warm. Staff were friendly.

The room I was in was on the bottom floor right by the stairs and was very loud. In the mornings, we were woken up by other guests walking down the stairs or a vacuum in the hallway at 8:30. I'm not sure if it was just the specific room I was in but I'm a heavy sleeper and it's never fun to be woken up on a holiday. For that reason, I would not stay in this hotel again even though the location was convenient and the staff was lovely.
