Dated, but extremely friendly owner, very helpful. Great location, 5 minute bus to the Royal Mile. Very old and dated, but clean and tidy enough. If you have heavy bags ask for a lower level room, we were on the top with 50kg of luggage which was a bit awkward. Wifi did not work in the bedroom, but was fast... More

I stayed for 2 nights with my sister. We were very late arriving but the owner was nevertheless very helpful, offering to carry both our cases up the two flights of stairs. Comfortable room and very clean. Continental breakfast as advertised, and we were brought more tea and toast without having to ask. Amazing strawberry jam...! On leaving the owner... More

Despite the warm welcome, it didn't take long to realise that the state of this place was shocking - clearly not worth the amount we were being charged for and turned out to be one of the worst bed and breakfasts we have stayed in. While I realise that the Edinburgh Festival pushes up prices, this establishment seemed to do... More

We were hugely disappointed with this guest house. We had booked for four nights during the Edinburgh Festival. The proprietor was very kind in helping us with our baggage, but as soon as we arrived at our room he asked us to pay for the four nights, in fact became very insistent when my husband said he would prefer to...

this is my very first review for TA but i felt a strong need to warn any potential customers who are considering staying here to forget it, as it was, undoubtedly, the worst experience i have ever had at a bed & breakfast in my entire life. i will be making a formal complaint to the scottish tourist board as...

This place signifies everything that is wrong with modern British hospitality, where profit margins and cost cutting gains far greater priority over customer experience. The sad thing is that so many people are willing to put up with this which means that standards will never improve. Where do I start? Perhaps with the room. Dirty, old, and where the creaky... More

Myself and partner stayed over the Jubilee weekend and have to say enjoyed our stay at the guest house. On arrival we were met by the owner who was very polite and helpful, welcomed us warmly to his guest house and helped us with our bags and provided us with plenty of information on things to do and bus routes....

I stayed here during the Edinburgh Marathon weekend. Participating in the full marathon. Preparation is vital, so I brought my own breakfast (porridge) to be boiled for 3 mins on a hob, I asked could this possibly be done? I was refused. So I went out purchased porridge that you use boiled water in from my room not a problem.... More

The owner is a great man, very kind, helpful, accommodating, and does all he can for his guests! Just a 15 minute walk from the city center, this place offers great value, with plenty of free parking and continental breakfast in the morning. Lovely views out the back of the house, clean rooms, and a quiet place to lay your... More
