No AC, they have a “swamp cooler”, and remember you are near pubs, so it can be quite loud at night, overall a good, clean place and on the royal mile.

Given the location, I knew the room would be small, but it was much smaller then expected. Very little storage. The bathroom is very small and the toilet is inches from the wall. Not easy to use. Also, the parking garage is a good 1/4 mile away down and inconvenient..
