great room for 1 person. Clean and comfortable, very pleasant decor.
Closet space would be a challenge for more than one person staying longer than a night or two.

Disappointing
Staff v helpful. Given ground floor room. Comfortable bed.
Not a single drawer in the bedroom to put clothes, valuables etc in. Worst breakfast ever - tasteless fruit juice, no fruit salad, no yoghourt(s), white sliced bread only, stale croissants.

The property was a 2 minute walk from the tram that was a direct tram to the airport- very convenient. The breakfast (included) was way better than any breakfast i've had included in a hotel stay- sausages, eggs, bacon, pancakes etc.
The price is steep according to Canadian hotels but is way cheaper than in Edinburgh city centre.
