For the price and easy access to airport- can’t be beat. It is very dated and bathroom is not the greatest (clean but old and a bit mouldy). Bedroom was clean and more updated- relatively quiet but stayed on a Monday night- would likely be louder on a weekend or quiz night.

Not close to downtown Edinburgh, but a 30-40 min bus ride. Close to the airport. Nice stay and a great price. The restaurant was good too.

The Inn has an antiquated toilet- the type where the water tank is up high then you pull a chain to flush. Light fixture in the bathroom is a chain pull as well. Although old everything worked as it should. The food at the Inn was especially good. Good value accommodation.

Chose for location to airport. Room and bathroom looked like it had not been updated since the 1970's. Mold on grout in bathroom. Bathroom door did not open fully or close. Noisy room with beer garden outside. Room finishes need to be updated. Tiny room. Only 18" between bed and wall on one side.

There's a bus stop outside with regular service to the centre. The rooms are big enough for a long weekend break with standard facilities. They offer food and drink which is very nice
