Comments: A weekend break with girl friends doesn?t happen very often when you are a single mum of 6. To start with the 1 hr flight was delayed for 3 & a half hours which put us in a bad mood to start with.

On arrival the B&B looked lovely from outside(homely) which is what we were looking for.
The reception area was pleasant and well lit.
There were 4 of us & when we walked into the room we were distraught , to say the least. There was 1 double and 2 single beds and a sink. No bathroom or shower in the room which is what we were expecting.

We went out straight away as it was already after 10pm.
On our return we got into bed and one of the beds had stained sheets and pillow cases which meant that they had not been washed so we had to share a single bed with 2 and a double bed with 2.
We went for breakfast in the morning and when I put the first spoonful of cereal into my mouth I felt sick because the milk was sour.
When I told the owner she did nothing.

The fried breakfast was not an adult portion and after eating 2 rounds of toast I took a bite out of the third slice only to find it covered in mould.
We fled to our rooms and got changed and went out to drown our sorrows.
We did not have any chance of a refund and could not afford to stay anywhere else.

Since our return we have discovered bite marks on our lower part of our legs and assume that the bed had flees.
We had never been to Edinburgh before and could not enjoy the beauty of the place because we were so depressed.

I wish we had paid ?5 extra per night and booked into the travel lodge, at least you know you get clean bedding, polite and helpful staff and more importantly-on suite facilities.
We would have been better off in a tent I am sure of It.
I will never recommend the B&B to anyone.
Two of us had to go into debt to go on this break and we will need counselling to get over It.

It has got to be the worst place I have ever stayed in, I even had to spend 15 minutes cleaning out the bath before showering because it was covered in pubic hair and the plug hole was congested with hair and slime.

Not good at all, and I don?t moan for nothing I can assure you.
The taxi services were outstanding and buses were every 5 minutes.
There is one place I will recommend and that is a place called Ryan?s bar, we had food there 2 days running.
