Cute spot of the touristy path of the Royal Mile. Still close enough to be by everything on the mile and other great food spots like Leith and Portobello.Only negative is the local Seagulls do not shut up!

The house is well maintained and the rooms are spotlessly clean. The hosts were tremendously accommodating when we had a problem that impacted our travel plans.  …

I'm one of those who pretty much never writes reviews, but with this one i have to: best room I've ever had in a hotel. First being warmly welcomed by one of the host ladies, with laughs and good recommendations for the area, then the extremely tasteful Scottish antique interior, and foremost the bed: don't think I've ever slept so well in a bed that wasn't my own. also the area is right where the cool and interesting stuff happens, beautiful shops AND people. All the more turisty hotspots are reachable within walking distance. If in Edinburgh: come here. You will love it.

Absolutely brilliant place. The level of comfort was overwhelming. Really nice thoughtful touches throughout, the dram of whisky in our room on our arrival was particularly appreciated. The shower was the best shower I've ever had. The only thing I could complain about was it was so comfortable and welcoming that we struggled to leave our room!
