It was my first b&b in Edinburgh and I will most definitely stay there again!! The location was perfect to walk and explore the city. The house itself has a lot of history and you can feel the quality and uniqueness of the atmosphere there. The food and service were also very good and were provided in authentic Scottish fashion....

The bed is comfy and the room is cosy and very warm which was indeed a treat after we walked all around frozen edinburgh. The carpet could use... More

Service from the foreign host (cant remember name) was excellent and location is rather central. Rooms need a face lift. Central heating can be controlled from your room, which I think that is very good. Towels very clean but make sure that you take your own toiletries as they do not provide any. Breakfast is good as well. overall it... More
