“Great location with very kind owners”
+The owners were the sweatiest, great communication from the beginning, always there to help, they had opportunity to check us a bit earlier which we really appreciated. Room was tide up every day with fresh towels which we didn’t expect but definitely appreciated! The location was great, quiet area but close to the city centre, you can just take a 25 min walk to get there, or us bus stop behind the corner that will take you everywhere!
−The room was a bit cold and water in the shower was running slowly which was difficult especially when you wanted to wash long hair. Also rooms are older you can see that but at the same time it give amazing climate!

+Velmi milý a ochotný majitel, všude čisto a pohodlné postele. Vybavení je sice starší, ale na pokoji nechyběla konvice, čaj, mléko ani sušenky. Skvělá poloha, do centra se dá dojít pěšky nebo autobusová zastávka je přímo před hotelem. Výborný poměr ceny a kvality, byli jsme maximálně spokojeni! 🩷
−Umyvadlo v koupelně mělo dva kohoutky a dvě trubky- jeden na studenou a druhý na teplou vodu. Takže jsme si ruce mohli umýt buď jen pod studenou nebo pod vařící vodou 🤭 Ve sprše to naštěstí tak nebylo

+La atención del anfitrión es excelente
−El wifi no es bueno, y cuando hay muchos conectados por la noche a la vez se cuelga o directamente no te podes conectar. En 2026 no debería de tener q pasar. El resto del tiempo funciona bien.

“Una stanza accogliente a pochi passi dal centro”
+La posizione della stanza è perfetta: in una zona tranquilla e silenziosa, a soli 15-20 minuti a piedi dal centro. Servitissima anche dai mezzi: c'è addirittura una fermata davanti alla casa. La stanza era essenziale e arredata in stile britannico, quindi dotata di moquette e carta da parati. Un ringraziamento particolare all'host che ci ha fatto sentire subito a casa e ci ha dato consigli utili su cosa visitare e come muoverci al meglio ad Edimburgo.
−Il letto alla francese un po' piccino, ma è una cosa che abbiamo riscontrato anche in altri posti in Scozia, quindi assolutamente non è un punto a sfavore.
