I ended up staying at a city centre hotel costing over £200 for my one night stay. Definitely not happy !! ##### Peter Stayed 1 night in Feb 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ellen, Bakersfield, California 15 Sept 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service The owner Ann was great friendly and helpful.

Hyvät liikenneyhteydet keskustaan sekä lentokentälle. Palvelu oli ystävällistä. Aamiainen tosi herkullinen ja perinteinen. ##### Paula Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 25 Jan 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great location, nice people and very clean.

Regular city centre bus links outside. ##### Barbara Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 26 Nov 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort Disappointing! Bizarre check in as the poor lady was obviously sick and they should have looked after her and got a replacement for her. No Guest book to sign in . Told full .... not shown facilities and left to own devices, given a key though so good. I was phoned later on my mobile in that same evening by a gentleman to see if we were on premises. Lucky we had family to be with till we returned there later. First morning breakfast provided but wondered if we felt inconvenience as only guests there. Second morning they forgot about us. We were told to go and buy breakfast outside . The poor sick lady had not been relieved and she told us she may need to go to hospital though she did give us an apology .The next day it changed as two other guests were inthe building so they provided breakfast then it was bit better. Room nice . Though they should say if they can’t cope with single guests in Winter . I chose this location as in E17 and thought it looked good on Reviews. Will definitely book Travel Lodge next time. Sorry!!! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 14 Oct 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Review I was passing through Edinburgh after a stint in the Hebrides.

Our host was lovely and helpful with local knowledge. ##### Sharon Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Graham 24 Sept 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Quick overnighter ! Really good stay no complaints , great breakfast ##### Graham Stayed 1 night in Sep 2018 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 6 Sept 2018 Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort We were greeted by the landlady announcing that the price on the confirmation had been entered incorrectly and should be higher by 45 GBP. We told her that as pensioners we would pay what was on the booking confirmation, She then said some people agreed to pay 30GBP more. We stuck to the agreed amount. She was quite rude the next morning, shaking a finger at us and commenting she gives good value for the money. We felt quite uncomfortable. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### darshana 11 Aug 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Beautiful room and near most of the buses.

Leider gab es ohne Vorankündigung kein Frühstück, weil die Maler da waren. Dafür haben wir einen saftigen Preisnachlass bekommen. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in May 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Linda 2 Mar 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Comfortable Quite a long bus drive from the centre of town but very comfortable room and a good breakfast ##### Linda Stayed 1 night in Feb 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 2 Mar 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice guest house The guest house was perfect for a Rugby trip to Edinburgh.

Convenient location. the owner let us park the car in the driveway and there was a bus stop to Edinburgh city centre right across the street. ##### John Stayed 1 night in Aug 2017 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Michael K., Carol Stream, USA 11 Aug 2017 #### Overnight in Gilmerton Quaint B&B outside of the city center. Great breakfast and nice staff and owner. Room was modest and our room faced a main road that was a bit noisy. Curious pricing as 1 guest is charged 1 rate and 2 guests in the SAME room are charged another rate. ##### Michael K.
