Great stay on the way to Edinburgh Airport

The staff were fantastic, so friendly and helpful. Room was totally adequate for our needs, good value for money. Staff were highlight of the stay, so lovely! The woman offered us advice for our travels, helped us get sorted and sat and chatted with us in the bar. We didn’t catch her names but the two blonde lady was fab. Would definitely recommend this place.
