The owner is very friendly, helpful, and hospitable making one feel very much at home. The room is nice, clean and cosy. It is also very accessible to the town centre and other attractions by bus. The nearby shops allow amenities to be easily accessed.

I didn't know I had a cousin in Edinburgh - well I haven't, but it felt very much like it, staying at Fiona's B&B. Lovely private flat, easily within walking distance from any sights in Edinburgh. Super bed! All very clean.
