The Alba House

We had a wonderful stay at Alba House in Edinburgh! The room was exactly as shown in the pictures, neat, clean, and well-maintained. The host was excellent and very helpful. The location was convenient, with great public transport connections to the city centre and a supermarket within walking distance. Overall, we had a comfortable and pleasant stay. Highly recommended!

A very comfortable and clean property and a welcoming hostess. A top car parking area provided also and a bus stop across the road too. So easy for going into Edinburgh each day.

Very central to Edinburgh bus services were straight across the road

There was no fridge which when you were travelling around would’ve been quite helpful

host was friendly upon arrival and going into the city center by bus was easy.

the amount of noise from the road was honestly appalling. a couple reviews recommended earplugs but for how much i paid per night, i feel like that shouldn't have to be the case! all day and night you can hear cars driving by so clearly you'd think the window was open. i stayed 2 nights and had to deal with a wasp (which i thought was a bee at first) in my room along with two large spiders and another random bug. i understand that it's an older building but i've never had to deal with bugs to that extent in an accommodation. the bathroom also smelled like wet dog and the water temperature often fluctuated. wifi was spotty and would often drop which was frustrating.
