Had a wonderful short trip.

Pros: The hotel was within walking distance of all the places we wanted to see but was far enough away from the main busy areas to be quiet at night. All the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Cons: The stairs 😁

The room smelled a little fusty, but I like the fact it’s an older building, with some character. It’s a fifteen minute

Pros: Old building charm, friendly staff, 15 minute walk to city centre, quiet location.

Cons: The smell of the room

Marina 8/10
United Kingdom 🇬🇧

It was a time travel into the decadance atmosphere of ease and comfort without any restrictions and prejudice.

Pros: I like an ambulance of the quiet area. It was very convenient to get to the old town to the Fringe festival. The stuff was very polite and always trying to help. We forgot our bag at breakfast and forgot to pay for breakfast, but everything was dealt with promptly and elegantly. This hotel is unique but if you have problems with legs , ask for room with less steps. Overall we had a warm welcome and looked after during the whole time of staying. Nothing was impossible for this lovely people. Highly recommend .

Cons: Maybe the room service could be done more often
