“Edinb&B strikes me as a solid choice for those seeking a quieter, more intimate base with its limited number of rooms and a shared kitchen for guest use; self check-in caters to late arrivals, which is a definite plus. Its central location is a boon for sightseeing, although light sleepers might note some street noise. For short stays, the value seems undeniable.”
