Superb

Exceptional

Liked: Nice quiet location, not far from the City centre with the bus. Irene was very welcoming and went out her way to help.

Excellent location, friendly host, nice...

Liked: Excellent location. Very close to frequent bus services (about 4-5 minutes walk). The host was friendly, engaging, helpful in terms of sharing her knowledge about Edinburgh. There was plenty of hot water and good water pressure in the shower.
Disliked: The bathroom in our room was uncomfortably small for us, and our bedroom was just big enough for us with two large and two small suitcases.

Superb

Liked: Location is very near the bus stop and close to city centre. Irene was very attentive and caring host! Would recommend to others.
Disliked: Nothing.

Memorable stay in Edinburgh

Liked: A very beautiful Victorian style house, with all the modern comfort. Great location, away from the busy center, but close enough with very well connected public transport. Very good quality beds, the entire family slept very comfortably. The delicious breakfast is served by the landlady, who is happy to share very useful tips about the city and the surrounding area.

Exceptional

Liked: Great location, great staff and nice room.

Superb

Liked: A nice hotel in a quiet location with good bus connections to the city centre. The room was clean and I was given a very friendly welcome, I can only recommend it.

My stay was extremely disappointing...

Liked: The people I met at breakfast!
Disliked: I specifically chose a room with a bath, when booking on-line with booking.com, but there was no bath with my room on arrival. In the middle of the stress and exhaustion of moving home, this treat of being able to soak in a warm bath, was the whole reason for me booking this room for one night with my husband. We are both pensioners and this was to have been a real treat for us. I would have chosen somewhere else if the information on-line had been correct. Why was a bath mentioned in the facilities for this double room when there was not one?

Homely and enjoyable stay in...

Liked: It felt like a home away from home; I felt sorry when I had to leave. Everything was what I was looking for. I stayed for six days, so I was looking for a homely place rather than a fancy impersonal hotel. I enjoyed sharing breakfast with other guests, and Irene, the hostess, was great, witty and funny and made me feel welcome. The bathroom was not in the room, the fact that I already knew, which is quite usual in Europe, but that didn't pose a problem to me; I had the key, it was only for myself, and it was spotless.
