A nice simple guesthouse to stay in Edinburgh that is close to good amenities that are walkable and close to bus routes. Friendly owner who went out of his way to allow us an earlier check in as we needed a jet lag nap and our flight had been changed.

Our stay at Menzie's was everything we wished for: nice and big rooms with all you need, good location (lots to explore around, but also good access to bus stations) and all of that for a very reasonable price. We really enjoyed our stay.

If you’re just looking for a bed. This is a great place. If you want any space or amenities like a bathroom in your room or anything besides a twin bed then look somewhere else. Plus there is NO parking provided for this place despite what is said in the listing.

Loved the vibe, very nice host , friendly.
However didnt like the worn bed spreads
And the fact that the cleaner came in while we were out and threw away our empty little scotch bottle collection on the mantlepiece which we were planning to keep as momentoes, was very peeved at this.

Owner is quite nice and helpful. The area is a bit far from the old town but many buses around so not a big issue

The owner communicated and checked in on us of when we were coming. Was at the door waiting for us and assisted on where we were staying.
Make sure if you are staying here to get an on suite restroom if you do not want to share restrooms with anyone else.
Will stay there again when we come back to visit.
