This is not a great luxury hotel, but for the price it is really pleasant. The staff is really nice, it is well situated, the room was clean and the breakfast very good for a guest house. It is a great place to stay for a week-end. More

Booked through laterooms.com so got good deal. Did state on website that it was a 10 min walk but that's not from the city centre as we found out. Good bus service however so easy to get into city centre. Small room which could do with some upgrading but was ensuite with hot shower, clean bed and towels provided. Room... More

The smell of dead meat when entering the building was overpowering! I was taken into a dirty kitchen to book in and left. They still take your money off your card if you book online and state you were a no show. More

Me and my boyfriend came to edinburgh for a few days for my birthday. What we loved about this place is that it was in good walking distances of the beautiful attractions and centre of the city. We arrived later than the check in time, which wasnt a problem we were greeted and the staff told us a few of... More

I know we only booked 6weeks in advance of our trip to Edingburgh. We were aware that this was the busiest time of the year. I genuinely thought that the Scottish Tourist board could be relied upon to get us decent accomodation. It was TERRIBLE. We arrived to the overwhelming smell of curry throughout the building. We are a family... More

My partner and I stayed here for 2 nights. It was comfortable and the included breakfast was good. Staff were friendly enough and the location was ideal for sightseeing if you don't mind a bit of walking - we walked most places. Overall the standard was good, but not fantastic. I don't know if we would stay here again without... More

I also stayed at this B&B on 20th August 2011, with a friend who has already submitted a review. I can only say after staying there that any positive review on this site must have been submitted by the owners. It was terrible! Anybody intending to stay there be warned - do not pay in advance as the staff there... More

Anyone that says this place was good are the owners. I left it late to book for the rugby and was forced to stay here. I paid £55 a head upfront by Paypal - when I got there they couldn't speak very good english and kept me and my mates standing around while they kept asking me for £220 quid... More

3 of us paid £300 for 2 nights, the room was shabby, scruffy, noisy. Breakfast was ok if you stuck to cereal and toast that you made yourself. Very very overpriced even if it was during the festival. More
