Dedicated free parking at the back & a bus stop out front which takes you straight into Edinburgh until very late. The food was delicious & the locals friendly. Bedrooms have smart TV’s which is miles ahead of most hotels/inns. Would definitely recommend staying here to anyone choosing to visit Edinburgh

Excellent Place to stay. Great staff, fine home cooked food, cosy bar, rooms basic but more than adequate, plenty hot water. Tear off road parking. Easy travel to the city - No.44 bus stop outside the Inn for city centre, Murrayfield & Tynecastle. Recommended.

The property was well kept, though an older building it was clean. It was handy to have the restaurant right there. It was close to the airport, and the staff was very friendly. Oh, and the bed was very comfortable. Even better than my own.
