We did not purchase an overpriced Continental breakfast Rooms were very adequate and efficiently appointed but bed was very hard and uncomfortable. Not having shuttle service to airport with heavy bags was unimpressive.

The room was cleaned every day, fresh towels by the bed. The staff was kind and accommodating. The breakfast is worth it so please make sure you have breakfast there every day. We had dinner once there and it was fresh and delicious.

CODE - The Court, Edinburgh
Incredible location, five minute walk from the train station (though uphill) and right in Old Town. Place is clean and stylish, and the jail cell rooms are charming. Laundry was a plus.
