As usual for Edinburg Guest houses, the value for money was rather poor. Pros: spacious room, good beds, everything was clean. Cons: no parking space as stated in the booking, no breakfast (!!!), the bathroom was designed for disabled people, so the sink was much to low; teeth brushing wasn't possible for "normal"people.

Don’t do it
I won’t stay there or recommend it to anyone. The noise from adjoining rooms, common area and outside was frustrating,
The room was small and no room for cases
The TV only had movie streaming, no tv channels
There was not enough car parking for the rooms and relied on stack parking who’s is not functional

Room 6 compares more to a broom cupboard than a small room. One electric socket, no working heating except the last evening of our stay, light was provided by a naked light bulb. The so called bathroom has no heating at all. It all felt very uncomfortable and not inviting.

Clean and fresh no frills accommodation
Comfortable beds, very clean and freshly decorated. We were in the modern extension and there was real lack of soundproofing as we could hear our neighbours chatting etc. No one onsite which meant we didn't feel like we could ask for extra pillows when we realised in the evening that there was only one on one of the beds and we felt it too late to ask. Initially no hairdryer in room or tv remote control, staff were on site at the time dealing with check-ins and quickly rectified this but we later found remote was for a different make so tv still didn't work. Shared tea and coffee facilities (not in room) but downstairs and no teabags left on evening we arrived also no sink down there to fill kettle. Very limited parking but lots of places to park for free in surrounding side streets. Overall the place was clean and freshly decorated, the beds comfy and bathroom fresh and modern so for a night it was absolutely fine.

Good for the price
The stay was suitable for our trip, the room was clean. The only thing I would like to add is that the facilities just need adjusting e.g more toiletries to be offered, and things like a iron to be added downstairs if you did need them, and the door slams so maybe a clasp or something to be added to make it quieter for other guests.

Good value
Very good location for the price, not too far from the city center. Close to Portobello Beach. Clean. Nice bigh bathroom with a bathtub, not in the room as stated in the booking, which I did not mind as I only stayed one night. Would come back.

Overall, good and clean
The room was functional for our needs, with a newly renovated and nice bathroom. However, the bedroom felt a bit tight for a couple, and there were no hangers for clothing or provided toiletries. It’s a good option if you’re looking for a quiet, no-frills place to rest. That said, check-in was a bit stressful—there were no clear instructions, and no one was there to greet us right at check-in time. Additionally, I thought I was booking a room within the guesthouse but was instead assigned a newer room with an independent entry, which was fine but seemed much smaller than the one I originally selected.

A nice affordable option for staying in Edinburgh. We stayed to visit the Edinburgh Tattoo and with a short Taxi ride to the city cente (roughly £10) we'd definitely stay again.

Great place to stay
Brand new rooms. Close to city center. Plenty of safe, free parking across the street at the school lot. Slight confusion with rooms at check in, but they figured it out. Rooms are small, but more than enough for a night or two. Shower was fantastic! There is a central older house, and the two wings with new rooms. There was construction going on, but not a big deal to us.

Everything was clean and tidy. We had a warm welcome by the host. The access to the city center is really easy by bus.
The only little "problem" was that there was only one blanket and we are not used to it in Germany. But it seems to be normal here.
