The only real drawback was the extremely busy road the property is on. Nearby dining options are limited. The hosts are very friendly but emails to order breakfast and ask for directions went unanswered. Despite the traffic, it was very quite.

Had few bugs in the room but hotel cleaned next da

Had a huge dead spider in the hotel pamphlet when we walked in. Premium pricing hotel but cleanliness was not great. Had bugs throughout stay and hotel owner mentioned that having bugs in the summer was the norm in Edinburgh.

La camera era piccola ma accogliente e pulita cosi come il bagno, asciugamani cambiati ogni 2 giorni. Dotata di bollitore, caffe the e addirittura calici e apribottiglie. Purtroppo letto piccolo e non comodissimo. Posizione ottima sia per il centro che per l aeroporto (bus che passano fino alle 23 e dalle 5 di mattina in poi, fermate a due passi). Purtroppo non posso dare piu di tre stelle perche la nostra camera era affacciata sulla strada che è molto trafficata e, se si ha sonno leggero, puo risultare difficile dormire.

Owners were super friendly and easy to get a hold of although I never saw them. The only recommendation I would have is they need new pillows. Other than that, it was a 10 out of 10 accommodation. Very convenient to being on the bus route also.

Nice accommodation. Confusing checkin process. On the outskirts of Edinburgh. A bus in to city center located across busy street. Located on a very busy street/highway. We were in an attic room which became very hot and uncomfortable. A fan was provided which helped. Main complaint is the breakfast cost which you are presented with when you leave. 12.99 GP ( about $17.50) each day you eat. If you don't care about an included breakfast this is a nice place.

Slightly out of the direct center, in between center and airport, kind of hard to get an Uber/Bolt as most drivers seem to not find it interesting enough. The room itself was clean, comfortable and decorated with attention to detail and the staff very friendly.

Anjoe and Thomas were great and friendly! They were so accommodating, letting us drop our bags earlier than our check in time. The room was spacious and clean and the optional breakfast was very convenient and good. There is a bus stop literally across the street that takes you right to downtown Edinburgh. So glad we stayed and their little pup Simba is just the cutest!

Never again

Room was very small. It was clean, but the towels were small and rough and the bedding was very well used. The pillows were almost flat. Breakfast was not included, so we didn’t bother with it. The owners really stuck it to us on the weekend rate which was almost double the price of a weekday stay. This made the size and condition of our room and the lack of breakfast even harder to swallow. It is not hard to catch the train the the city. Would be worth it, except for the price we paid we could have stayed much closer. Oh, and they also had checkout at 10 am!
