Dropped our daughter at University of Edinburgh. We couldn’t have gotten closer to the main campus. Great location. All major sights were walkable. WONDERFUL buffet breakfast each morning very quiet and clean. 2-room suite type hotel with kitchenette and sitting area in separate room with tv. Highly recommend. Will stay again when visiting our daughter.
