Reviews for West End Guest House
Review 1：The West End Guesthouse is a nicely appointed and stylish accommodation. Our hosts were very friendly and the breakfast was fantastic. We were thrilled that our room had excellent WIFI even though we had read not to expect it. We were in room No. 6 which has a King sized bed and a single but we were only charged for a double. We were offered this upgraded room because we were there for 3 nights and Carol thought this would be quieter for us. It was a lovely, airy and bright spacious room. We walked all over Elgin and found the nearby monument and Elgin Castle ruin to be a magical place to spend time around sunset and take in the 360 degree views of the city and surrounding countryside.
Review 2：Nothing bad at all. My only suggestion is that it would be convenient to have hooks or rail for hanging towels in bathroom.
Review 3：Friendly welcome, very comfortable twin room with very clean presentation of bedroom and bathroom. Delicious and plentiful breakfast with excellent choices. Will recommend to family and friends.
Review 4：nothing

Review 7：Lovely place to stay, clean, well kept, had everything you'd need including plenty of tea, coffee & milk etc unlike others who only give you enough for 2 cups. Lovely staff/owners & a great breakfast.
Review 8：I found the (single) bed slightly too short for a tall person (>1.84 m), and slightly sloppy to the side. Although not too bad, there is some slight issues with soundproofing, in particular with water pipes and heaters.
