This B&B is in a great location for the bus links to the airport and city centre. Marilyn is a lovely host and was very accommodating with our breakfasts choices even when we had to leave early for our flight. …

This B&B is in a fantastic location and Marilyn is a fantastic host. The room was spotless and had everything I needed, including a fan, fridge, TV etc. Typical Scottish grey communal entrance but once inside, it has a lovely welcoming charm. Would definitely stay again.

We stayed at Marilyn's lovely home from home. After a warm welcome we were given lots of advice from where we could have dinner to directions to our friends house. ||Arranged our breakfast for the next morning, which was also terrific. Slept well in comfy bed and wouldn't hesitate recommending this warm friendly apartment.

This homestay was the best and our hostess, Marilyn, was the best you could get. She cooked us a full Scottish breakfast for our first morning there and it really filled the plate. …

What a lovely place to stay. A 15 minute bus ride from Princes street. My room was beautiful and breakfast great - nothing is too much for Marilyn, the hostess. She can give you tips on what's going on and what's worth doing / seeing. I highly recommend staying there.

Don't let the scary entrance put you off. Unlike other places in the UK that were nice looking on this outside, but horrific once you got to your room, this place was the opposite. …
