Ensuite Double room in a fabulous home

TracyRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

I highly recommend Claire as a host. She goes above and beyond to give her guests a nice, enjoyable and relaxing stay. On my first day of arrival, she thoughtfully took me to local supermarket, so I could buy basics for breakfast etc. She also showed me where the bus stop was too. Claire lives in a very quiet area and the bus stop is only a 5 minute walk. So the best of both worlds…quiet, calm and relaxing place to chill and a short walk and short bus ride to city centre to explore Edinburgh. Claire gave me a key during my stay, so had the freedom to come and go as I pleased. I really enjoyed my stay with Claire. She’s so lovely, friendly and helpful. We got on really well straight away. The bedroom and en-suite bathroom were even better than the photos. The bed in particular was very comfortable . The price paid was amazing value too. I’ll definitely been staying with Claire again when I visit Edinburgh again.

이 숙소는 알려진 그대로 깨끗하고 좋은 숙소입니다. 위치는 시내로 갈때는 버스를 타기가 좋았고, 다른 지역으로 이동할때는 고속도로를 타기가 좋았습니다. 데이비드가 날마다 차려주는 아침식사는 그 어디에서도 경험하기 힘들 것이라 생각됩니다. 벌써 이 숙소와 아침식사가 그리워집니다. 4박을 했는데, 혹시라도 다시 에딘버러에 간다면 이 숙소를 찾을 것입니다.

Hemos pasado unos dias en casa de Doreen y han sido estupendos, la habitacion mejor incluso que en las fotos la casa muy bonita y el baño recien reformado.Los gatos muy lindos y Doreen ha sido maravillosa dadonos unas recomendaciones estupendas y muy utiles y el trato con ella nos ha hecho sentir como en casa. Esta un poco lejos del centro pero hay una parada de bus justo enfrente de la casa y en menos de media hora estas en el centro. Definitivamente cuando vuelva a Edimburgo volvere a alojarme alli.

Logement très chaleureux et accueillant à l’image de Rosemary que nous remercions encore de nous avoir attendu tard le premier jour ! Rosemary a été adorable, nous discutions avec elle chaque soir, elle s’intéresse à ses visiteurs et sait se montrer discrète en même temps. Un peu excentré mais cela n’a pas posé de problème, le bus passe devant la maison et si vous avez une voiture il y a des places visiteurs devant. Nous recommandons à 100% !

Delightful Fully Licensed Room in the Inch

JeremyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

We had a fantastic stay with Susanne and Kilian in their lovely home. Susanne was a kind, considerate, and genuinely friendly host who made us feel completely at ease from the moment we arrived. Breakfast was a real treat, with a thoughtful spread including fresh fruit, jams, bread, eggs, and a lovely variety of Nespresso coffees. It was great to see a selection of milks provided to cater for different dietary needs. The room and home were clean, tidy, and impressively well-organised. There were lots of thoughtful touches—locked drawers for valuables, hotel-style shampoo and body wash in the bathroom, and even umbrellas provided for wet days out. We felt very well looked after throughout our stay, and wouldn't hesitate to return. Highly recommended!

A minimalist workspace is situated against a crisp white wall, featuring a television mounted above a white desk. A table lamp and a small flower arrangement add subtle decoration, while a blue upholstered stool complements the desk. An electric kettle and tea setup are available, enhancing convenience.
