text: Hart Street is absolutely a fantastic place to stay in Edinburgh To start the proprietors James and Angela are incredibly warm welcoming and helpful I have stayed at many BBs in my time and have enjoyed many of them but at Hart Street I felt like a guest staying at the home of an old friendnnThe accommodations are cozy and charming We stayed in a double room with two twin beds The beds are a bit small and perhaps not the most luxurious but the bedding is soft and clean I felt so relieved after a long trip to snuggle my comfy little bed The bathroom is small by US standards but looked to be newly renovated The water pressure in the shower was great and the entire bathroom was spotless We had an offering of tea coffee cookies and scotch whisky in the room As Scotland can get quite cold we had a good adjustable furnace as wellnnThe location is perfect for travelers who want easy access to the city center and train station but like to be a little ways away from the noise of a busy street It was about a minute walk to Princes Street in new town and now much farther to castle our hosts were able to recommend good restaurants and give clear directions with shortcutsnnThe breakfast was delicious and very filling Each morning we were offered a wide selection fresh fruit juice coffee tea toast bacon sausage eggs kinds of cereal and they seemed to be able to prepare anything else we might have asked for The food was fresh and tastyan excellent way to start a long day of sightseeingnnOverall I was incredibly happy with my stay and felt it was a great value for the money
