Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Haymarket is a peaceful part of Edinburgh and Gardner’s Crescent is a very quiet road. I mainly walked in and out of the city centre, which is done quite easily, but also used the tram, rail, and bus services with stops nearby. The staff were all very helpful. A particular shout out to Sakuba, Sophie, and Krish, and the rest of the breakfast crew who made every morning start well.
