Only met the staff very briefly and check in hence the 4 staffs but everything was fine with enough tea and coffee. Would be great if they did breakfasts ##### Josephine Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Delwyn 5 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities I loved my room here (number 7). Bigger than other single rooms I had on my trip, beautiful wallpaper, window seat, lovely view of Arthurs Seat. Bathroom was small and the water pressure wasn't great. Bus stop to town just across the road. Be aware it's at least 10 mins walk to the nearest shop. ##### Delwyn Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Holly 19 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Beds and pillows are not great.

We were able to drop off our luggage before check in so we could see Edinburgh without worrying about bags. Transportation is right out the front door making it easy to jump on and off the bus to get to and from the Royal Mile. ##### Annette Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dave 19 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Quaint stone house converted in to a 10 room hotel. These are quite common in Edinburgh, and there are quite a few of them in the same area. Recently renovated and clean. The other guests were all quite which was nice. A short distance from the action of the Royal Mile, about 10 min by buses that run ever few minutes. WiFi was very slow, but other then that it was a great place to stay and I would stay here again. ##### Dave Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Megan 11 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Lovely accommodation, the bed was very firm.
