The one issue is that a taxi cannot pick you up or drop you off outside the property. But staff are happy to call a taxi and it collects you avout 100 metres away at the corner.

This place worked great for our overnight in Edinburgh. Staff at check in was very helpful. We had a 4am leave to the airport and they set up a taxi for us - no problem. Easy walk to tons of pubs and restaurants. Room we had was small but we were only there for a few hours so no big deal.
