Giovanna was exceptionally attentive and helpful as a host, and she runs a great Italian restaurant next door. Check it out. Our stay was a wonderful experience for our family. The negative was the walk up 3 flights of stairs for us of a certain age; but, hey, the extra exercise may have resulted in our slight loss of weight—something that has almost never occurred for us on vacations. ##### Sanford W.

Large kitchen and living area that enabled the 6 of us to relax and spend time together. Every space was very clean. Nice to have a roomy shower. Beds were comfortable, even the bunk beds (considering we’re over 60). Grateful there were fans provided as it was super hot in Scotland during our visit. Excellent communication with the owners and check-in was super smooth. Appreciated that we could do laundry on site. Highly recommend! ##### Meredith P.

Good sized flat so it worked for us. Location in New Town at the base of Calton Hill so lots of stuff close by. The one consideration is the pub across the way that is open very late (2 or 3 AM) with loud patrons outside. Muffled if you keep the windows closed. We’d stay again if we had a need for that many people. ##### Lawrence J.

Giovanna was a great host and the property was just as advertised and in a great part of town. It was very accessible to everything and a short walk from Waverly Train Station. We could walk to Calton Hill, Princes Street, the Royal Mile and Edinburgh Castle no problem. The property is directly across from the Playhouse if you want to catch a show and close to plenty of places to eat. We had a blast exploring Edinburgh. Thanks for hosting. ##### TIMOTHY J H.

Great location for some Fringe venues, some of the main venues are about 20 minutes walk away. Slightly noisy as there's a busy nightclub directly opposite which stays open late. We had a problem with the shower, one phone call to Giovanna and it was dealt with immediately, the shower replaced without any hassle or stress. Excellent service. Feel a lot fitter after the 3 large flights of stairs up to the apartment, don't take too much luggage! Really good communication with Giovanna, could not have been better, 3 sets of keys so we could do our own thing. Convenient restaurants/cafes and fast food places right on the doorstep. After check out, bags can be left at the Italian restaurant next door in a secure cupboard. All in all, very highly recommended. ##### Janet S.

We were able to walk down stairs and go right to the tram system and hit all of the sights! It is in walking distance to many shops, dining, etc. The flat itself worked great for our quick stay. We needed bedrooms for everyone and bathrooms were key in organizing how fast we could get up and around to sight see! The hosting family goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome as well!

Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Victoria B. 1 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Convenient location for good price At first we were alarmed about the drab staircase and apartment was like a long narrow hallway but once we got into the living space and bedrooms everything looked nice and clean. The doors all self-close due to fire regulations but look around and you might be able to get creative. Ceilings nice and high and good view of the Playhouse theater. Location was good for the price - 15 min walk to Old Town. Owner, Giovanna was very responsive - she sent her husband the same morning that I mentioned the doors were squeaking (which led to us waking each other me up to go to the bathroom), and he took care of the problem. They own the restaurant downstairs - Giuliano’s and her husband was super nice and attentive to us when we went in for a light lunch. Worth checking out the restaurant btw as it was quite tasty. All in all for a City Apartment we have this 5 stars for the price and location, well supplied, clean and attentive owner. We have stayed in much nicer accommodations but those were all in the countryside - we would have had to pay a lot more to get a high end flat in Edinburgh so for its price tier, this home gets 5 stars. ##### Victoria B.
