Comfortable beds. Excellent wide and powerful shower, the best I've ever used! Close enough to city centre. WiFi is cheap at £3 per day. Parking is on-street only but this is the case in this neighbourhood and we did not find it hard to find a parking spot. Accommodation met our requirements fully. Very clean. Lovely quiet area 10 mins walk from Playhouse Theatre. Owners really nice Would definitely go again . all reviews »
Excellent B & B, near downtown and fair price, all very clean and the photos published are true, this is important.
We liked it because it was close to the bus stop, and downtown area, the castle. The train station was near by.
Very efficient and courteous service, excellent facilities particularly the shower room. Warm and comfortable..
The price was great. Room was clean & quiet. Not fancy, but not run down either--it was nice.
Only 15 mins walk to city centre or frequent bus service close to Cambridge House.
Friendly staff..nice breakfasts.
Cosy rooms and attentif staff.
warm and comfortable.
Good value for money and very clean.
Nice bathroom, great shower.
location good for start of Edinburgh Half Marathon.
The rooms are far from soundproof and light sleepers will be bothered by the sound from other rooms and traffic.
My room door could not be locked from the inside. This created an embarrassing situation when the room service lady let herself into my room while I was sleeping without my clothes on - DESPITE the Do Not Disturb sign that was clearly hung on the door knob!!!. No negative comments.
Nothing really.
no air-con...too hot in the rooms.
to far from city centre for our purpose.
Bed could have been a bit better comfort wise.
Location too far from city centre and need to pass by a very doggy road.
They shouldn't be charging £3/day for WiFi. You can find free WiFi everywhere in the city but not in your own room!!!.
smell in bathroom
hot.
The room in the basement had no natural light.
