A nice place to stay for a night.
The unit was in a good neighborhood and felt very secure. The building was nice as were the surrounding buildings and park across the street. The only issue we had is at the owner moved the check-in time from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. after we had already made our arrival plans. He changed them approximately 4 days before our stay even though we had agreed on 2:00 p.m. at the time of booking. I did not see the message moving the check-in time until it was too late. This caused us to stand outside in the rain for quite some time because the cleaner had not yet finished and did not leave the unit until 4:30 p.m. it was frustrating for us to stand there with our bags in the rain. I recommend verifying the check-in time with the owner so that you don't end up in the same situation.

Good location for activities
Location very central to many sites. Within walking distance to Royal Mile, Arthur’s Seat & Holyrood. Lots of places to eat on Leith Way. Property was fairly small but that is expected in central city area. We didn’t spend much time there anyway with all the things to do. Just sleeping and showering and then off to the sites. That was all we needed.

Sherilyn W., Where do you live?

Liked: Cleanliness
Very close to downtown, host was so helpful and friendly
The very clean apartment had multiple thoughtful touches (umbrellas for rainy weather, a "pay it forward" bottle of whiskey for a wee nip of Scotland's finest, fresh milk and condiments in the kitchen, etc.) that made for a lovely "welcome." Having a washer/dryer was invaluable, the wifi was speedy, and the bed was quite cosy and comfortable beneath that (much needed) fluffy comforter. Communication with the owner was extremely prompt and very friendly/helpful. This is an older building, so there is no elevator/lift, and the apartment is on the third floor, so be ready to do some "heavy lifting" if you've brought bigger pieces of luggage on your trip. Other than that (and it's clearly not something the host could control), the experience was wonderful.

Perfect spot
This rental was perfect for our Edinburgh holiday. We could walk to the Royal mile or could easily catch any one of several buses. The place was bright with high ceilings and comfortable furniture. The bathroom was clean and the shower worked well. The kitchen was stocked with basics. We enjoyed our stay here very much and would recommend this apartment to other travelers.

Comfortable stay, very close to Arthur's Seat
We had a terrific three-night stay. The shower and bedding are great, and we appreciated having fresh milk and coffee available. It's a great location for exploring Edinburgh, especially since we were there for the weekend and could park our rental car for free across the street.

Exactly what we were looking for
The apartment was perfectly located and everything taken care of by the owner. Even came with wine and a cute snack! The nespressos were the ideal treat with the rising sun. We were happy to keep the blinds open and wake up to a bright room and view. I'd definitely stay here again. I can't believe what a deal this place was.

Perfect base for a city break
Stayed here with our boys (11 & 7) for four nights and had a fantastic holiday - Perfect as a base to explore the city, with easy access to everything by bus / walking. The flat is lovely and a cosy place to come back to relax in, after days out. Bus stops are just a few minutes walk away so you are in the city center very quickly. Would definitely recommend and hope to return one day!
