I had a fantastic stay at The Inn Place, thanks to its prime location just off the bustling Royal Mile, providing easy access to major attractions while being pleasantly quiet at night. The rooms were clean, spacious, and well-decorated, although I did find the lack of storage a bit inconvenient. The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming, making my stay more enjoyable. However, I did find the breakfast a bit overpriced for what was offered.

I opted for the breakfast once, and while it was well prepared, I felt that it was a little pricey at £12.50 per head given the limited options. The experience could have been improved with more variety and better service.

My stay at The Inn Place was a mixed bag. While the location was absolutely perfect for exploring Edinburgh and the room was spacious and comfortable, I had some significant issues that impacted my experience. The lack of a window in my room coupled with a surprising discovery of a leech on my father's towel truly overshadowed the positives. It’s hard to overlook the dismissive attitude of the staff regarding these matters, which really diminished the overall experience.
