Very Good
We had a great stay at the Froach House. There's a bus that literally drops off and picks up at the door. The location is amazing and close to everything, but the street was still quiet. Breakfast is offered for a reasonable fee, but you do have to tell them in advance. Very charming building.
The room was smaller than it looked in photos, which was a surprise and the bed is very hard. Our room got a lot of light so even with curtains I would recommend a sleeping mask.

Our room was quite large and very clean. There was more furniture and shelves available to put our things, which was a nice change! Quiet space, and comfortable.
The hooks not attached on the massive drapery - It was very sunny in that space- we needed the drapes

We appreciated being able to drop off our luggage upon our morning arrival and the tea, coffee and biscuits we were served. Great location with bus access and easy walking distance to pubs, shopping, Royal Gardens, and the Hop on Hop Off buses.

We had a fantastic stay in this lovely room in Edinburgh. The location was perfect - close to all the main attractions, but still quiet and peaceful at night. The room was clean and cozy, just like on the photos. The hosts were friendly and helpful. Highly remmonded!

As advertised, great location, very walkable (20-30 to old town, 20-30 to Leith), easy access to public transport. Lots of restaurants and things to do in the area. Clean and comfortable, host was fantastic and attentive. Easy to find and easy access to building. Would stay again without hesitation.
Nothing, it was as advertised and exactly what I needed.

Fraoch House is a lovely, good value stay in Leith, a very good, lively and interesting part of Edinburgh. The room was comfortable. It was clean. Plenty of space. Good wardrobe and storage space. Very good shower. There is breakfast if you request it. It feels like they encourage you to go out! But many excellent choices within 5 to 10 minutes walk. Check out Coco Rico and don't be put off by the "industrial site" location. Excellent food. It would be worth clarifying payment dates with Matthew so that he doesn't try to take your payment earlier than Booking.com led you to believe. Having said that, he was so good to communicate with. Not really a problem.
