“Holiday Inn Express Edinburgh City West sits a little outside the center, though handy buses ease access. Newly refurbished rooms offer comfort, and some views stretch across the city. I think it's a practical choice, balancing cost with reasonable proximity to Edinburgh's attractions.”

Satisfactory Stay with Minor Issues
friendly staffclean roomlovely benchespoor breakfastlong waiting lineminimal water flow
The staff was friendly. The room was nice and clean. The benches outside were lovely when the weather was sunny.
The breakfast was poor. The waiting line for breakfast was insane, even early in the morning. The shower barely worked, with minimal water flow.

The air conditioning unit wasn't working. The panel was hanging off (i had to get a heater). i also heard every door slam. The walls seemed thin. housekeeping knocked early too, even with the 'do not disturb' sign.

awkward layoutmissed room
The layout of my room was REALLY awkward. The bed was practically glued to the window, I almost tripped on a ledge every time I got up. There was this huge, pointless revolving chair taking up all the space. It felt VERY cramped. Housekeeping also completely missed my room one day, I was annoyed by that.
