    It's very close to the main road with bus station, but still in a side road quiet enough not to be disturbed by traffic. Nice charming old house in a nice residential neighbourhood. Short walk to Campus, near the hills for a nice walk, walkable...

    Victor was really helpful. I like the fact that he was always available.

    Great location, very helpful staff. The single room was large enough for a chair and table so not a total squeeze. High ceilings and old sash window gave the authentic old Edinburgh feel which was nice. Quiet location, very accessible by walking...

    Helpful and friendly staff, despite us not knowing when we'd show up. Complementary fruit and cookies. Clean, neat and tidy.

    Bom custo benefício, próximo do ponto de ônibus (30 e 33) que leva ao Centro (17 min para chegar na Royal Mile), funcionário atencioso, nível de conforto adequado
