8/10 Very good

Ideal location for visiting someone at Heriot Watt uni. Free parking and excellent bus links into city. Good, varied breakfast selection. Evening meals not so good - limited menu anyway but when we were there they had also run out of a few things. Extremely spacious room with a huge bed. Pillows too soft for me but that's just personal taste!

10/10 Exceptional

We have stayed in a lot of hotels over our travels. THIS WAS PROBABLY THE BEST SERVICE BY STAFF IN 30 years. The front desk helped us in every possible way. The breakfast was very good, the staff serving the buffet was very tentative to our needs. The only time during our weeks stay ( ha ha) that I was told no was when I asked for a tooth pick.
