Very central; fairly cheap - a place with character!

The location was key, as we were right in the heart of Edinburgh. Having the computers and bar was nice, although the drinks were expensive. 24-hour reception was great, too, and whoever was working was always kind. The atmosphere of the entire place was laid-back and friendly, questions were answered and meeting people was easy. Thanks!
