A really nice place to stay. Good sized rooms in a guest house setting. Although no front desk or receptionist, the remote customer service was excellent when needed.

Convenient for public transport and the centre of Edinburgh. Room (Victoria) is well equipped, clean and a good size. Didn’t see any staff - not a problem, but still a bit unusual for me at least.

It is a good location for the lovely Leith area, and the trams run straight to Edinburgh centre and also the airport. A good relaxed option, avoiding the crowds.

Room is lovely and location is great. Marked down my rating as floor tiles in the shower area were raised and loose so easy to stub your toe. Also we had no hot water the day we were checking out (neither did another guest who was leaving at the same time). We didn't report this as we had to checkout so there wouldn't have been time to fix before we left as there are no staff on site.
