Comfortable and enjoyable. Excellent location for fast travel into city centre, plus very easy to find driving in from outside.

Friendly, courteous, clean, helpful (travel info, early breakfast etc)

On street parking free but a short walk away - this was not clear on booking.

Very personable. It was a welcome place to stay and would recommend it to anyone looking for a B&B.

No air conditioning or even a fan. It was very hot and uncomfortable. No elevator.

Very friendly staff, nicely presented hotel

At the higher end of the price scale for this type of guest house

The worst during our one week tour in Scotland.

The reception really bad: a man waiting for us stayed 2minutes maxi at our arrival; very poor contact in a guest house....; a room so noisy facing the main street despite of my reservation on Internet one week before; facilities in the room and at breakfast so poor also!

Central location on main road, good public transport.

Really first class for cleanliness. Breakfast was good and filling. Although there was no parking at the front of the hotel, except Saturday and Sunday, there was adequate parking down a side street at the side of the hotel. Also the hotel was on a main road with an exceptional amount of buses passing by into Edinburgh City. Well worth the money. Friendly landlady who was most obliging and willing to help you as much as she could.

Friendly people. Absolutely spotless and spacious. Good breakfast. On bus route into City.

No parking at hotel, although there was parking down a side street it was a bit of a fag packing up to leave for home but perhaps I am just bit lazy.

Nice quiet and comfortable hotel with a beautiful breakfast that would be hard to beat anywhere.

comfortable and beuatiful breakfast

no tea or coffeee or milk in room and front entrance smelt of smoke

Coffee/tea tray with kettle, easily reached by bus, the street is lined with other B&B's, an Indian restaurant nearby, while pubs, shops and chippies are further away and hard to guess where - a map of nearby services in the room or hallway could be a useful

Quiet even though on a busy street, good breakfast

Slow check-out, no shampoo, small room

I wasn't sure if this location would be in a nice neighborhood or close to economical transportation. However it was located in a great neighborhood with a bus stop less than a block away with buses going directly to the city center. The room itself was very pleasant and the shared shower room was always well maintained. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others either traveling solo or as a couple.

Good location, transportation very convenient. Staff friendly and accomodations were very good for the price.

Very welcoming Guest House. Owners pay attention to detail, which makes your stay very memorable. I would definitely stay there again, and I've already recommended Alexander Guest House to some colleagues.

The attention to detail. The towels were all presented in a most artistic way, as was the napkins at breakfast. Very nice.

The cable for the kettle was on the short side, which made me a bit wary.

The room was large and fine for four persons.

The room was not especially clean. It was rather dusty.
The bin in the toilet was not emty when we got to the hotel and is was not emtied before we left two days later.
The cups in the room was not changed after the first day.
There was no where to place the towels in order for them to dry until next morning. They were placed on the radiator which was cold.
