Location was excellent, with good business service. Check in and out was easy and hostess was very friendly and accommodating. Room was large and all the basics were provided.Will recommend.
Good room very helpfull hosts nothing too much trouble, very nice bed good car park with cctv 😀 didn't have a problem
Also nice shops within walking distance they give you a code for the door and one for your bedroom door and asked me to write it down 😀 good idea my brain leaks lol
An enjoyable stay. The place was very clean and tidy, the bed comfortable. The location was convenient - an easy bus ride, or walk to the city centre. Staff helpful and friendly. Excellent value for money
The Edinburgh Guest House was conveniently located close to the city center, with a bus stop directly across the street providing easy access to major attractions like the Royal Mile. However, we found it to be overpriced for what it offered, particularly since the shower did not function properly during our stay. While the location was a definite advantage, the accommodations did not provide good value for the price.
Staff was amazing! The woman who greeted us and took care of us was very sweet and responsive. Great guest house I give it a 10/10!

Big clean room for 4 people for two nights. 25 mins walk from Royal mile which was fine and on the bus route if preferred. Only issue shower head already broken so had to hold the shower. Otherwise great stay for the price. Would definitely recommend

Good bed and breakfast option to stay as is close in public transportation to main city point. The attention from the personal was excellent. The place was quiet. I didn’t even notice other guests.
The rooms was okay, the ceiling was leaking during the rainy days we were there. The heating wasn’t working. Not well maintained but the location was very good. Also no lifts.
