We are considered as a young couple which 15 minutes walks to the centre of old town is just fine such as Edinburgh castle.
From the airport tram (York Place) to Altido just about 12 minutes walks, so it is no problem with luggage.
Altido serves also coffee, tee and water to go for everyone at the reception.
The shower is quiet small which overweight people will have problem with it and the bed are very small for two persons. However, the rooms are clean.
The internet is very fast.
They also have a billiard table but we don’t use it because we out all the time.
They don’t serve breakfast but no problem because close to Altido there is a supermarket called Tesco which you can pay with credit card or cash and if you run out of money, there is 5 minutes walks ATM bank of Scotland.
