Andy the owner seemed nice and communication was good so I hesitate to write a poor review. However, I wish someone had written one for me to read to avoid my bad experience. Bed linen badly stained, clump of someone else’s hair on shower wall, couldn’t get hot water out shower even after reading hotel manual (tepid at best) so didn’t wash (and it was hair wash day! Girls can relate). Apart from general wall and furniture touch-up repainting, there was this bizarre, frequent, loud creaking without me moving. In reality, this felt like a 2 star establishment, not 4.

Easy access to transportation into Edinburgh. Unfortunately they were unable to provide breakfast however cup cakes or shortbread cookies were offered at reception and they were delicious. The room was quiet even though the hotel was in a busy area.

We got a parking space right in front of the guest house, got into the hotel, very easily, and found our room. Very pleased to have a small glass of port that came with the room. We walked two blocks down to have dinner at a Polish restaurant, then walked across the street to have a glass of scotch in a pub with great ambience. The bus stops in Front tomorrow, so it will be very convenient.
