    The location was pretty good. Easy to walk to places I wanted to see

    The air conditioning in the room was broken upon my arrival. I informed the front desk and I was told that the issue would be corrected by the next day. It wasn't. My entire stay was without air conditioning, making the room very uncomfortable.

    The Apex Waterloo Place Hotel in Edinburgh was fantastic. The hotel was clean and had a wonderful location in the heart of the city, perfect for visiting the Christmas market.
