    Supper friendly, amiable staff, amazing location so close to both the center of the old and new town as well as the airport, central Edinburgh by bus, and nearby attractions. Also, to town centre by bus. Immaculate units with comfy bed. Tea and cereals available for breakfast.

    The setting is great, just next door to a restaurant by yourself as well as the centre of the city, very quiet area. The rooms are en suite and reasonably spacious and the bathrooms are clean.

    cozy ambiance
    awkward bathroom layout

    The guest house has a lovely cozy vibe. The location is excellent, with easy access to public transport and local shops nearby.

    The toilet placement was a bit awkward, requiring one to sit at an angle due to space constraints.

    I appreciated the warm blankets on chilly nights and the convenience of a nearby grocery store. The quiet neighborhood was perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring the city.

    cozy room
    quiet neighborhood
    water pressure
    narrow staircase

    Something you might like to consider

    Cozy room with a perfect bed, warm blankets and a kettle for my tea! A quiet neighborhood with easy access to buses and a lovely morning walk to the city center.

    Limited hot water pressure in the shower could be bothersome, with narrow staircases making access a bit awkward for larger luggage.

    beautiful view
    friendly service
    poor wifi
    no breakfast
    small tv

    The beautiful view from my room stood out, revealing the charming surroundings. The lack of breakfast and restrictions on food in the room necessitated frequent dining out, which detracted from the convenience. The small TV in the room was adequate for watching, yet not ideal. WiFi accessibility was poor on the second floor, limiting connectivity .

    lack of space

    The Small Twin Room was cozy and super clean. I loved the comfy bedding, easy to snooze after exploring. Plus, the view from my window was fine! The TV could have been bigger for a better viewing experience.

    Solo travelers looking for comfort

    The place is quiet, and I loved how clean everything was. The owner, Neil, always had a cute smile, and he gave me some great tips for exploring the area especially the local pubs. The shower pressure was amazing, nothing better after a long day.

    It wasn't exactly cheap, but honestly, the overall experience was still acceptable.

    limited breakfast options

    The guest house had a lovely cozy vibe. Our room offered a fine view of Edinburgh, and my father loved the location, as it was easy to explore the city on foot.

    My kids wished for more breakfast options .

    cozy room
    quaint neighborhood
    food restrictions

    Super cute vibe, cozy room kept toasty through chilly days. Quaint neighborhood full of cute cafes and pubs just a short stroll away.

    Could use better options for food in-room, as well as slightly bigger TV for comfort.

    Great location in a peaceful area with an awesome pub nearby. Easy to get to the city center by bus or a 20-minute walk. Also close to Blackford Hill, a nice spot to check out. the breakfast here was tasty, especially loved their vegetarian sausages! 🍳
