“In my opinion, its location strikes a nice balance: accessible to the city center yet retaining a quieter residential feel. From what I explored, the owners appear to focus on creating an inviting, detail-oriented environment, and the rooms seemed noticeably well-maintained and equipped, going beyond basic amenities. It's the sort of place where I'd expect a personal touch to make a difference.”

The location was fantastic. It was a short walk to murrayfield. a bus stop right outside made getting into the city centre easy. the rooms were clean. they included a kettle and tea and coffee. the breakfast offered fresh cooked items. I was full after that.

the bathroom was a little small and the shower took some figuring out.

Rooms

The room i stayed in was very large and seemed to dampen sound effectively. it had big windows, which let in a lot of light while also keeping things very quiet. I could not hear any other guests.

Dining

Breakfast was beautiful. It was cooked fresh with plenty of tea and coffee available. there was also a continental breakfast, so many choices were provided. i was asked if i needed any more items, but i was already full.
