Karen & John are fantastic! They are very kind people, the house is very nice and the room very clean and comfortable. Karen's breakfast was really tasty and her lovely dog Toby my new friend! They helped me with all my questions or concerns about buses an gave information about places to visit. Thanks so much for a wonderful experience in your company!

Despite having such a short stay I felt right at home. The room was cozy, and the hosts were so very welcoming and helpful. There is a close bus stop with great service, so I could quickly get to the city centre. This stay definitely made my trip so much more lovely, and left me wishing to come back and see more of the city. Thank you so much Karen and John (Eduardo)

Karen is an exceptional host. She is generous, empathetic and caring. I appreciated the tasty breakfast, the peaceful surroundings and the modern bathroom. It was nice to retreat home after sightseeing. I enjoyed meeting Karen’s family, dog and guinea pigs.

I really loved staying here, so I don't have any complaints. Some might find it a bit far from the central city, but if you don't mind the bus and enjoys pretty city views then you'll be happy.

Really felt at home and had a wonderful stay. Karen and John are lovely people, and really go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and looked after. If I solo travel to Edinburgh again, I will hopefully be able to stay here once more.

Wonderful and very hospitable owners. The room and bathroom were very clean. The hostess prepares delicious breakfasts. There is a bus stop nearby with buses to the city center. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to stay in Edinburgh.

Karen and John are super! I spent a week at Karens and Johns home in Oxgangs. The room is as described, small but cozy and totally sufficient for a good sleep or relaxed evening tea at the window. Bathroom is super modern and clean. As all was very clean... The breakfast was just fine. Karen really tries to offer everything one could think or ask for. First loved the quiet and green neighborhood, just a 25min busdrive or so from the old town or even a relaxed walk through parks, hills and a valley (@ Karen: "like valentine" ... 😉) But the best of all really were Karen and John and Toby themselves. They welcomed me and let me feel home immediately. We had nice chats and a lot of great laughs! Thank you so much for all of this! Love to come back!

The only thing is that the mattress was quite soft and might be not the best option for bigger sized people.

Karen is an amazing host! Haven’t seen anyone so thoughtful and caring for her guests! I felt more like visiting family than staying somewhere from booking. Breakfasts also help to save some money on the trip. Karen was even kind enough to buy some plant milk and yogurt as have intolerance to dairy. I really appreciate the opportunity to get to know each other better. The room is also very cosy and feels like home. Shower is very modern and convenient.

My stay with Karen and John was wonderful for the week that I was in Edinburgh for a conference. They were there for a lovely chat over a delicious breakfast each morning and in the evening upon returning from a long day at the conference. They did their absolute best to make me feel welcome as much as they could and are a very kind and welcoming couple. The room was suitable and cozy and the private, recently renovated bathroom was more than suitable for me. It was easy to get into the town centre using the double decker 16 bus and I had no issues coming home up to 10:30pm in the evening. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Karen was so welcoming. Just wonderful. I had just flown into Scotland & was so tired. She couldn’t have made me more welcome .

Nothing negative to say at all.

Handy location on south side of city. Very quiet suburban street away from main road. Easy parking and short walk to frequent bus service to city centre (25-30 min to Princes St, runs to late pm). Very comfortable bed, cosy room with spotlessly clean, well-equipped bathroom across landing for sole use of guest. Nice to have tea/coffee facility in room. The hosts were extremely friendly and welcoming. They provided an excellent breakfast with generous portions which set me up very well for a long drive south - as did the location - pretty much on the right road in/out of town if heading from/to M74/M6. Excellent value too. Highly recommended. Thanks folks!

Oto zaktualizowany komentarz: My stay at Karen's place was absolutely wonderful. Karen is an incredibly kind, warm, and helpful host. She went above and beyond to ensure I felt safe and comfortable during my stay, even during the challenging conditions of storm Eowyn. Thanks to Karen’s generosity, I was able to stay at her place during the storm, even though I didn’t have a booking for that day (my trains were canceled, and I couldn’t get to my planned accommodation). She made sure I felt comfortable and well-fed during that time, and she did it all selflessly. The accommodation was cozy, spotless, and well-equipped. The location is perfect for exploring Edinburgh, and the atmosphere in the house was so welcoming. A special mention to John and their adorable dog Tobby, who added even more charm to the experience. I highly recommend staying here and would definitely come back! Thank you, Karen, for making my visit truly unforgettable.
