mediocre stay near the royal mile
high noiserepetitive breakfast
The noise level from outside was pretty high. Earplugs became my best friend. the room itself felt cramped, even for a solo traveler such as myself. i requested a quiet room but apparently, that request vanished into thin air.. also, the breakfast was quite repetitive. i would have appreciated some variety after a few days.
