Motel One Edinburgh-Royal

8/10 Good

"Really liked the hotel just wish there would have been more description about the room. The photos show a room with big windows hot to the hotel and it was a small window looking right at a wall. Was so bummed out! Also keep in mind there is no AC so you’ll probably want to open your windows which is fine expect it’s near a pub I heard everything from singing and drunk people up until around 4am very loudly and then people fighting. Other than that great location."

"\the staff were universally helpful, especially at breakfast. the cleanliness was excellent. Breakfast was good. I did not find the restaurant for other meals suited my taste but that is an individual matter. There were not enough vegetables for my liking. My first room was hard for me to navigate but I was moved to a very satisfactory one. The car park and the lift were selling points for me initially but I have become comfortable there, so will be back, barring accidents."
