The rooms themselves are a testament to considered comfort, balancing a sense of coziness with well-appointed bathrooms and incredibly comfortable beds that ensure a truly restful sleep. Its position, just off a lively street with excellent transport links, makes exploring both the city centre and Leith remarkably straightforward.”
