Quality apartment in a great location

Property was extremely well maintained, in a fantastic location less than 10 minutes from the train station, and the host was very friendly and knowledgable. Groceries, pharmacy, coffee, and a ton of attractions all within a 10-15 minute walk. Spent a week walking everywhere with no need for a vehicle and minimal need of public transit. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting to visit Edinburgh.

Great Location

This was a great location to stay on my recent trip to Edinburgh. The apartment was very clean, well designed, with all the amenities one would want while traveling. The location was quiet but within walking distance of any sight you wanted to see. The host was exceptional. He stayed in communication with me. Was at the apartment when we arrived to show us around. Gave us helpful tips on how to navigate Edinburgh and was just genuinely a nice and vibrant person. I highly rate this property and the host!

Great stay in a lovely residential area!

If you want a quiet place to stay in busy Edinburgh this is a great choice! The owner was very helpful and gave great recommendations for restaurants and activities. Walking to the Old or New Towns takes about 25 minutes and there are lots of buses and taxis. We especially loved the Leith port area including the Compass restaurant.
