This very good budget hotel is equal to 4 stars. Make sure you stay in the double room with good views, a larger bathroom, a balcony. The staff is very amiable and accommodating. It is in magnificent location to The Real Mary King's Close, set minutes away from the property. The rooftop restaurant is nice, serves tasty dishes.
