"It is absolutely beautiful! The bus stop is literally right out front, which was amazingly convenient. The owner was so kind and helpful, too. Very lovely place to stay."

We had a great time, everything was clean, they checked us in early with no extra charges, they cleaned our room daily and they were really nice and kept our bags after check out
Nothing, even the position that isnt central is very well connecter with a bus stop right in front of the property and the busses pass every 5/10 min

Easy to get into Edinburgh Central
Our room was at the top of the house up some very steep stairs. This was OK for us but would be difficult for older people of those with mobility issues. There are more accessible rooms available so check availability when booking.

Very charming house. Very clean and comfortable bed. Friendly host. The bus stop is in front of the house, very convenient to go to the center of the city and historical sites. There is a shopping center nearby with many stores and coffee shops.
Small room for two people. Not enough space to put the luggages or clothes. Suggestion to replace carpet for laminated floors.

host was friendly upon arrival and going into the city center by bus was easy.
the amount of noise from the road was honestly appalling. a couple reviews recommended earplugs but for how much i paid per night, i feel like that shouldn't have to be the case! all day and night you can hear cars driving by so clearly you'd think the window was open. i stayed 2 nights and had to deal with a wasp (which i thought was a bee at first) in my room along with two large spiders and another random bug. i understand that it's an older building but i've never had to deal with bugs to that extent in an accommodation. the bathroom also smelled like wet dog and the water temperature often fluctuated. wifi was spotty and would often drop which was frustrating.
