I enjoyed my stay at Rooms & Suites Picardy Place, with its central location and friendly staff. The room was spacious and well-decorated, though the lack of hanging space was a real downside. Despite a few issues like outdated TV options and some room amenities not being replenished, my overall experience had more highs than lows. 🏨✨

The amenities were a bit hit-and-miss; loved the real milk in the mini bar but was let down by the lack of a docking station and insufficient replenishment of tea and water.

Breakfast was included and surprisingly good! I might've tried a local spot for a full Scottish breakfast if I wasn't on the meal plan, but it was still a tasty start to the day. The steak restaurant next door also deserves a shoutout for a fantastic meal.

The complimentary snacks and tea-making facilities in my room were a nice touch. I appreciated the daily replenishments even without requesting cleaning services. Wi-Fi was decent enough for my needs.
