The facility is family run. They are full of friendly chatter and advice about things to do and see in Edinburgh. You feel that they care that you are there. The location is well-connected to down town whether walking or taking the bus. There are a number of bus lines that come right in front of the building as well.

The Wi-Fi is fantastic. It's fast and reliable. A big plus!
The accommodations are located on a main street, so you can expect plenty of noise from the outside traffic. However, if you are towards the back of the building you may be less bothered by the noise.
The bathroom is inside the room. You can imagine the lack of privacy with this type of scenario; however, this may not be the case with every room.
You may find your mistress is a bit too “springy.” However, staff will be attentive to your needs if you find this is the case. Don't expect any type of compensation for you discomfort though.
