Booked this place for 1 night recently, it’s in a quiet location with bus links into the city centre and you could also walk. The room was ok and we had a shared bathroom which was fine.

A nice guest house with friendly helpful owner and staff. The room was fine – clean with comfortable beds and the bathroom was good. There was bus routes which stopped outside to take you into the centre.

We booked to stay at this guest for a few nights, the owner was friendly and the room was clean and tidy with the towels changed each day. The location is on the outskirts of Edinburgh city centre and took around 20 minutes to walk.
