B&B very well located and not expensive for the location.The beds are comfortable and the kitchen is very clean.A little refreshment would be welcome. The wallpaper is deteriorating and in the bathrooms/toilets there is mold.Out of two bathrooms, one had a broken window (so frozen for showering). And the other shower had no hot water.

Well located room.On the date we stayed a lot of noise from other rooms late in the evening.When we asked people to make less noise, people didn't care, bordering on making fun.We had the feeling that the rooms belonged to them and they did what they wantedWe are tourists, I find that the welcome is not great

Great location, Canongate end of Royal Mile. Easy to find, clear instructions to access Great value for money, not a hotel but clean comfy. Great to have a kitchen and washing machine while traveling. Very responsive and helpful owner. The first few nights were lovely spending time with respectful fellow travelers. However on Saturday night we encountered some rowdy travellers.

A bit difficult to find. It is an apartment with several rented rooms, kitchen and 2 extra bathrooms. The apartment is clean, the bathrooms okay. Breakfast to prepare yourself. In the room there are 2 double beds and a small table, nothing to spend much time in. The price for 2 people was 140€ high for a Friday in November. The location is relatively quiet near the Scottish Parliament and you can quickly get to the old town.

A great accommodation that at the price things are, is very highly advisable. The room was spacious, comfortable and cozy, there were plenty of bathrooms for everyone and they were clean and comfortable. They helped us at all times with check-in and also with leaving our luggage afterwards. Everything was help and problem solving. Thank you very much for everything, if I return to the city, I will return. Highly recommended

We reserved a room on January 29, 2023 for July 3-4. 4 days in advance, we received a message that the hotel was full and our reservation was canceled with the fact that they offered us 3x more expensive accommodation!!!
