Edinb&B's central Edinburgh location, near the university and Royal College, is a highlight for many, offering great value for money.

tiny room missing window
the location was central to everything i needed, a lovely little place.
the room was tiny with no window and it was never specified in the reservation. the towel was only the size of a hand towel per person. i asked to change rooms but they said they were all occupied.
