L'accueil a été très sympathique. C'est idéalement situé pour visiter Edimbourg. Le bus passe à proximité et nous avons pu garer notre voiture juste devant. La chambre est propre et agréable.

Rien.

"The host was lovely and the room was beautiful; just needed attention to cleanliness."

6.0

Great old house! Very kind host.

The private bathroom was located outside of the room so we had to walk through a public area to access it--not very convenient. The place needed a good cleaning--floors, corners with cobwebs, towel rack dirt.

The parking lot is small it can not fit more than 3 cars at once. Overall it's decent and would come again if I decide again to visit Edinburgh.

"Lovely property & very responsive host"

Lovely property with spectacular features. Great parking for the location. Very responsive & helpful host.

Some furniture/fittings a little tired. Could do with electrical sockets in more suitable locations for the beds for charging items & plugging in bedside lamps etc

Niets

Alles, de ligging ( dat hebben we niet goed bekeken, dus dat is door onzelf niet goed gecheckt) verder was de badkamer bij de ramen helemaal zwart van het vocht, en de kamer ook op diverse plekken vies en stoffig. Het stonk er ook verschrikkelijk naar een erg zure (schoonmaak) lucht. Mijn man werd er erg ziek van en zijn dan ook een dag eerder vertrokken.
