Although it was the 1st time we stayed in the place with a shared bathroom, this wasn't an issue at all, because there were two spacious bathrooms and they were kept sparkling clean. The room was in the basement, but again, it was lovely and the whole decor (the room itself and the lounge area outside) had this quirky style about it that we really liked. Our host Manigeh was very responsive. We only stayed there for one night as we came to Edinburgh for the New Year's to attend the Hogmanay street party. Manigeh was very kind to let us check out later on the New Year's day and we really appreciated it as we needed more time than we though to recover from the Hogmanay/New Year's celebrations. If anyone is in doubt, we can definitely recommend this place.
