Lovely and cozy bed and breakfast, very traditional but with good facilities. Super nice proprietors. Definitely recommend it.

The mattresses are old and hard, maybe not suitable for people with back problems. Also, it's relatively far out in Edinburgh (although the city isn't huge and it's easy to take a bus).

"Excellent accommodation experience, I will definitely choose again."

10.0

The whole house is very neat and beautiful. The room is very clean and meets the requirements. There is no scale in the kettle. The host and his wife are warm and friendly, and the service is thoughtful.The location is excellent, the bus stop is at the door, the fare is 5 pounds all day, and you can go to the city center in about 15 minutes. The weather is good and you can enjoy the city walk. I strongly recommend this hotel, the price is very good than the downtown, but the cost performance is very high. Just a little suggestion. It would be great if the pillow could be updated to memory form which would be of great help to people with sleep disorders. I will choose this place next time. Thank you Jimmy and Fiona.

"Unparallelled Hospitality"

10.0

First off, the hosts were genuinely warm and welcoming, and immediately sought to make me, as their guest, feel comfortable and at home. After a quick orientation, I was taken to my room. Reading the info binder within, I thought I had never read any info binder more thorough or thoughtful than theirs - they have literally thought of everything. My room, though fronting onto a busy road, was quiet at night and I slept well. Breakfasts were excellent, with a lot of choice, all beautifully made. The location of the B & B is great - not in the centre of the tourist area, yet it's an easy walk into town, or, you can catch one of the many busses that will take you straight into the heart of the city in minutes.

I really can't think of anything. It was wonderful, and I'd happily stay there again.
