“The hotel stands in Edinburgh's New Town, a historical area now offering a practical base for city exploration. From what I gathered, the location is ideal for accessing key attractions and transport links, though some internal elements could use attention. I see value here for those prioritizing location and accessibility over flawless amenities.”
