The location and that it had breakfast. It’s a ok hotel in the US it would be a 2 - 3 star hotel.
The selection process for getting the room we needed which was for 2 twin beds. Instead we got a double bed and a pull out couch. Sleeping on a pull out couch is not exactly comfortable and it took up the majority of the room. There was no place to keep suitcases open, or move around the room.

Nothing. They lost our reservations
Couldn't tell you. They lost our reservations even though we arrived early (10:45ish am), they acknowledged our stay and stored our luggage. When we came back after the regular check-in time to go to our rooms we were informed that they had lost mine and my friends' reservations and they gave away our rooms. While waiting for the cab to another hotel we watched MULTIPLE people check in after we first arrived. Instead of bumping someone who showed up later than us.
Even though the manager, Agnes found us rooms at another Holiday Inn Express and was kind enough to pay for our cabs and dinner, it was all the way across town and because of that we missed out on being able to explore the royal mile very much our visit Dean's village like we planned due to lack of time. We specifically made reservations for a hotel near the royal mile only to get moved all the way across town near the ocean terminal. Very disappointed to miss out on our short stay.
