“This hotel in charming Queensferry has friendly staff and functional, exceptionally clean rooms, plus a generous hospitality tray; views might include a courtyard, the ocean, and bridges. Bear in mind that some rooms have only a bath, not a shower, and there's no lift to the upper floors, which might present a challenge. Overall, it's a cozy base for exploring the seaside town.”
