Very good and convenient location
Comfy twin room, well designed and furnished. Very convenient for Haymarket side of town.
Minor things stopping it from getting 5 stars in my review -
The room keys weren’t being programmed properly so had to be escorted to the room each time (friendly and polite staff though!).
The refillable bottles of shampoo and shower gel in the bathroom were both empty.
My room was above the main entrance and there was an extremely noisy lorry outside delivering something at 7am in Saturday morning.
I used a herbal teabag (as I drink uncaffeinated) but the next day was replenished only with regular caffeinated tea bags.

No Guinness!!
A very modest, clean and fairly contemporary hotel, approximately 10 minutes walk from Haymarket station. A little off the beaten track and you have to walk for about 10 minutes before you find a few bars and restaurants. The room was comfortable and had a very contemporary en-suite with walk in shower. I only had 2x gripes: the AC was a bit hit n miss and I couldnt regulate the temperature. The other issue was there was no Guinness on tap in the bar!! Small mercies!

Friendly and welcoming staff
Very friendly staff on reception and in the restaurant. Loved the smiling faces first thing! I had everything i needed in the room and was very pleased to have spring water provided. I was on the grohnd floor but wasn't disturbed by any noise from inside or outside the hotel.
Only a short walk from Haymarket station and into the city.

Need to be more diligent
When I arrived, I was told someone had already checked into my room. Apparently someone with a similar sounding name was in it under my booking. They changed it round eventually, but I wasn’t happy that this could have happened. Any charges/damages to the room could have been linked to my card!
The room itself was clean and comfortable. However, as a solo female traveller, I was given an adjoining room. I know the connecting door was locked - but it didn’t feel very safe. I was also a little bit disappointed that breakfast wasn’t available as room service as I had worked a late shift the night before. I don’t know if I would stay here again when there are several similar options nearby in the same price range.
