Falcon Crest Guest House

Two very warm peole made my first stay in Scotland feel so special. They know how to greet people into thier home such excellent service. There additional help on there own area how to travel to and from place to place was well above expectations. The bb is very traditional and suits the traveller who likes things more homely.

I have no complaints whatsoever about my very short stay. Friendly owners and generous tasty breakfast.

As expected for a converted town house. Welcomed by the owner and given advice where to eat locally. A cheap and cheerful place I'd happily stay at again should I need a room in Edinburgh.

The room was good value and the neighbourhood was quiet and safe; regular buses to the city centre to be found at the end of the street.

bed a bit small for me but very quite and great for city centre as long as you have a car or use taxi

i was overnight for a party and the oweners were very welcoming and helpful .

We arrived in the evening. The entire downstairs area was filled with racks of linens drying. That should have been the first warning. While I enjoy the smell and feel of line dried linens, the sheets were, for lack of a better term) "crunchy". When I arrived in Scotland two weeks prior, I called and spoke to someone at Falcon Crest who assured me that we could get a sacked snack instead of breakfast, as we had to leave for the airport before they begin serving. When we arrived, I was told that they do not do that. It was quite disappointing. We would have made other arrangements had we not been mislead. We were tucked into a cozy upstairs two twin bedroom with sink in the room (which was appreciated) and a shared bath. I was prepared for that. I wasn't prepared for the shabbiness: old and worn towels that could have been used for sandpaper, toilet so loose it rocked. We asked for directions for a local place to have dinner and were told nothing would be open. That we'd have to drive further away to find an open market. Since we'd just driven in shortly before, we'd been past several places that were open just 30 minutes earlier. We took a chance walked the three blocks to several different options. Many were still open. Bed and Breakfast people are usually kind, helpful and have pride and knowledge of their neighborhood and surroundings. It felt as if we were a burden to the staff. An inconvenience to be tolerated.

Our stay was ok. The room was really tiny. The service was ok. There was a kind lady ready to help but the hotel did not have much to offer. For the size of the room, the neighbourhood, it was extremely expensive.

Friendly hosts. Within walking distance of restaurants..Good transport links into city centre nearby.
