Great place - no lift .
Great location , lovely room , fantastic view of the Firth of Forth, However you really should mention that there is no lift, as walking up 3 floors( 52 steps , slightly spiral staircase) with luggage is not easy. If you have any mobility issues, please request a lower floor . There is a tesco express right around the corner, very handy .

After reading some reviews, I started to think we’d made a mistake, but we were pleasantly surprised. Easy access with door code, room basic but clean, we stayed in room 25. Bed very comfy, bathroom looks remodelled. Kettle and hot drinks available in room. Only downside is no lift but it’s such an old beautiful building that we did not mind carrying the pushchair up. Would definitely stay again if up for a short stay. Two minutes from John Lewis, the playhouse and OMNi centre
