This was a wonrderful stay in a beautiful house. Our room was lovely, it had all the amenities. We got more water delivered into the room every day. There is no breakfast per se, but there is a possibility to Easy bustrip to city cetnre. All in all the possibility to travel within the city from 4 Friends House is great. Also lovely walking path (The Water of Leith pathway) along the river is just a couple of minutes walk away. Super friendly staff. I forgot my book into the room and they delivered it to me to where I had gotten after check out!! Great communication through out. Thank you Lukas & Silvia!!

Lovisa

From

Sweden

Excellent host! Service is like a hotel but with a much more personal experience. Clean. Quiet (do not be concerned about closeness to airport). Lovely location, where small town meets countryside. 30 min by bus to downtown Edinburgh (bus app works well). Also, if you have a car, Sabannga Thai restaurant 3 miles away comes highly recommended.

The room arrangement was superb, and when combined with the room and bathroom's cleanliness, it enhanced the overall experience. The concierge service was consistently outstanding on a daily basis. The host was exceptionally welcoming, helpful, and remarkably kind. There's nothing to complain about, except for a brief two-day period when the WiFi was subpar during my stay. Nonetheless, the host promptly resolved this issue once I brought it to her attention.
