Ben the Hoose is a beautiful, calm place. Within 5 min walk you can get to the sea and to a closeby bus station which will bring you to Edinburgh princes street in 25-40 mins (depending on traffic). We liked the interior a lot, all the furniture and accessoires were thoughtfully put together and made us immediately feel like home. The hosts were friendly, even though we hardly saw them (due to our busy plans). Give it a go, Ben the Hoose won't disappoint you!
