You may have not indented to do so, but I think you have managed to express the state of mind that a lot of people are in. The sense of wanting to help, but not knowing how or where, is something a lot of us are going through.

Mac and Marian gave us a warm welcome. It felt as if we were coming home!. The Straven is the best guesthouse in Edinburgh. I have stayed her on numerous occasions. This stay was with my mother and sister. I have previously stayed with my husband and we have stayed with our daughters. I have been in twin rooms, double room and family room. All rooms are excellent, beds and comfortable bathrooms are spotlessly clean. The Straven is a lovely guesthouse and anyone who books here, will not be disappointed.

This is the second time I have been asked to comment. However, as my husband and I were very happy indeed with our stay at Straven House, we gladly reiterate that it was one of the best Guest Houses we have stayed in; excellent room with a beautiful view, comfortable beds, no superfluous decor, very clean and a generous and delicious breakfast is served. This was value for money. Many thanks.
