The location couldn't have been better for us, especially as it is directly opposite one of the stops for the 24/7 airport shuttle bus. Our welcome from Carol was warm, friendly and genuine. We had caught an early flight so arrived before our room was ready but Carol wasn't fazed and was very happy for us to put our bags in another room which she later kindly transferred to our bedroom. Carol offered us refreshment when we arrived (which we declined as we were expected for breakfast with friends close by), and asked if we would like her to get ingredients for breakfast the following morning - nothing seemed to be too much trouble for her. The room was very comfortable and a refreshment tray in the room was a kind touch. We would certainly recommend anyone planning to visit Edinburgh to stay with Carol.
