Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Sauna start-up is not intuitive — Several guests found the sauna initially tricky to turn on, requiring some trial or a YouTube tutorial before it worked.
  • Gym equipment is limited — The fitness centre lacks cardio machines like treadmills or bikes; it's suited mainly for strength training.
  • Check-in window ends at 23:59 — If you're arriving late into Edinburgh, you need to reach the property before midnight – there's no 24-hour reception.
