I was staying on the ground floor, towards the back of the property. The window did not have a lock; it was not secure, and anyone could get in from the outside.

Clean and comfortable. The best of both worlds (AirBnB and hotel). The room was made up every morning but the cost was quite low. I'd stay again when I return to Edinburgh.

Lovely stay

Very comfortable, good value, a lot of charm, convenient location, away from the hustle and bustle but a short easy bus ride into the downtown area (buses come all the time and you can pay with credit card 1.9 pounds each way).
