The room was comfy, the shower fab, everything was very cleanbeautiful buildingas was the garden. It was very peaceful seeing we were pretty near everything. The hosts gave us a map and told us where everything was and what buses to catch etc. 15 minute walk to Haymarket St.
Not having breakfast wasnt an issue as there was plenty of cafes and restaurantspurely personal, I would of loved a coffee machine!

I would like to highlight the attention and easy communication with the hotel. Clean room with amenities left every day. I really enjoyed the accommodation and highly recommend it.
It met my needs and exceeded my expectations!

Conveniently located to bus line into Old town, quiet and safe neighborhood. Fresh fruit provided when we arrived.
Hosts were briefly helpful (provided map and bus numbers) and were willing to store luggage. Other than that, the stay felt a bit impersonal as they are not on-site all the time. Would have been great if they served a continental breakfast or were more overtly helpful.

Lovely clean & comfy guesthouse 15-20 mins walk from Edinburgh Castle. In a quiet safe neighbourhood. I enjoyed my stay and would definitely stay again. Also great communication.
Would have liked some heating on in the room.

Wonderful
This was a great find in a city full of incredibly expensive accommodation. Cathy met me at the door upon arrival and gave me some basic guidance on navigating myself to the city and local public transport. She was also great with answering a couple of questions prior to arrival.
The room is small, but sufficient for a solo guest, and the ensure bathroom was very modern and clean, with an excellent shower. The bedroom was clean and had a nice little tea and coffee tray, with a kettle and a selection of fruit.
There is a television with all the usual channels, and a working, lightweight hairdryer.
The bed was comfortable and was made every day.
I had no problems with noise or any other disturbance during my stay.
There is a lock on the bedroom door, so you can feel secure when leaving the room.
You can reach the Old Town on foot in about 15-20 mins, and taxis and buses are easily available.
I'd really recommend this place to anyone looking to spend a few days in Edinburgh - it's comfortable, clean, and in good reach of the main city, with pleasant and friendly hosts.
Very minor - the bathroom sink is long rather than outwardly wide, and there's a glass shelf right above it, so I found it a bit tricky to wash my face and brush my teeth.
It would be great to know if fans could be made available for guests in warm weather as I think the room could get very warm.
Thank you for your information!
