a decent experience
central locationtasty optionsfriendly staffcramped roomsteep bar pricesweak wifi
the location rocked, it was super central! the breakfast included loads of tasty options, i tried the full scottish breakfast, it was spot on. i loved how friendly the staff were, always up for a chat and super helpful with directions. the building itself had a really cool, historic vibe, it felt special.
my room felt a little cramped, it would be nice more space for my luggage! the bar prices, they felt a bit steep, i ended up going elsewhere for drinks. i had some trouble with the wifi signal in my room, a stronger connection would be awesome!
