Not quite what we expected

The hotel is in an excellent location - just a very short walk from the Royal Mile - nice bar and restaurant - however, the rooms are very spartan - kinda like camping out - only hotel accomodation in memory where we had to buy our own shampoo and bath soap - bathroom small with a clingy shower curtain - (it wouldn't leave us alone) - little to small closet (no real closet) - and very noisy because of 24 hour train service - we'd pick more stars for a better hotel next time.
Good hotel for the money - but no washcloths!

Previous review is right -- shower controls are odd, but manageable. Excellent value for a decent hotel room in the UK. 3 minutes walk from the train station - 5 minute walk to Royal Mile. Bring your own washcloth -- the hotel does not supply them. Clean room, comfortable bed. I would definitely stay here again.
