There was a very small parking area to the rear. The property entrance hall and stairwell need refurbishing - large stained areas on carpet. Room was adequate and beds were comfortable. No disturbance but a lingering smell in room, partly a drain smell from shower. Needed a spare key for my son butvthere wasn't one. Good, frequent bus system, into Edinbugh, from stops very close by.
