“This guesthouse, nestled in Edinburgh's New Town, strikes me as a refined base for city exploration; its 18th-century origins lend a distinct ambiance. The self-check-in adds a layer of convenience, and from what I gather, the rooms are well-appointed, balancing modern amenities with historical charm. I think it's a smart pick for travellers who value both location and privacy.”
