This was one of the worse places we have stayed in the UK. It is an absolute disgrace that the owners are able to advertise this Guest House as a place to stay in Edinburgh and take guests hard earned money for such a awful place. The state of the room and accommodation as a whole was worse than basic places I have stayed at in the developing world including Africa, Asia and South America. Conditions included: peeling wallpaper, damp and mouldy outside wall, stained and worn carpets, mattress that was so old and in such a bad state i could feel the springs through the sheets and got little sleep, pillows that were flat and hard, room so small there was nowhere to put a small bag or toiletries , TV that was tiny and didnt work because of such poor aerial reception, smell of damp so we had to have a window open all the time which meant we heard the traffic on the main road outside constantly and no one to speak to at the property to pass on our concerns!
