Remember that Edinburgh is quite hilly, and a big city. Do you really want to be toting your baggage around, up hill and down dale for miles? Getting lost? Will you even have a street map with you?
Use Google Maps to find out how far it is to walk from the bus station to where you are staying, AND WHICH DIRECTION. If it is towards the airport, then bus probably does not make sense.
Once you have THE FACTS, then you can decide whether bus or taxi makes more sense.

It is safe. It's not like London or Birmingham.
