This wasn't my first visit so I already knew how comfortable and friendly this place is. Lovely to see the chickens who laid my breakfast eggs, and the majestic clydesdales. The shower had easily the best pressure of any on this trip (4 other hotels used). Lovely big room.⁸

I am very satisfied with my stay at this place. Ms. Margaret was a gracious and welcoming host. Everything was neat and clean, and the overall atmosphere was truly pleasant. I would highly recommend this room to anyone. The location is also excellent—just a 7-minute walk to the bus stop, with only a 15-minute ride to the city center. Both the conditions and the ambiance were definitely a plus.

We enjoyed everything about our accommodation! We arrived pretty late at night, as our flight was delayed and to our surprise we were upgraded free of charge to a 2 bedroom apartment. The apartment was clean and very well equipped (washer and dryer, dishwasher, iron and board, cutlery and dishes, stove, oven, fridge, toaster, coffee machine etc). There was also a TV in every room, which we didn’t use much, but it was nice to have. The beds are some of the most comfortable we ever slept in and it was great that we could set the room temp ourselves, as it was pretty cold at night during our stay. The staff is super nice and accommodating and the distance to the main attractions is decent (20 minutes walk). We’ll definitely recommend to any of our friends viaiting Edinburgh and, given the chance, we’ll come back!
