    After a trans Atlantic flight to Edinburgh, we took the Airlink bus located right outside the airport exit. For only £6 per person it took 30 minutes to arrive at the last stop, which was a 3 minute walk to Motel One. We had a lovely room....

    It is near the transportation hub, train, bus to airport, tram. And it is right on the major street and near the royal mile.

    Location is amazing, breakfast is great, the staff is very friendly. It has everything you would would want except a fridge, which is not so much of an essential. Would definitely stay there again.
