Edinburgh Flat
The Flat was comfortable and met our needs during our stay in Edinburgh. Parking is not abundant for the flat, as most street parking is by permit only during the day.

The flat is lovely and very clean. The position is very central, with many nice cafes (Little Fitzroy, Polentoni) and food shops nearby, and many buses going to the centre or to Portobello stop in this area. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything you need to cook meals. We really recommend this flat!

Great value and proximity to everything in Edinburgh
We stayed here four nights on our first visit to Edinburgh. This apartment was great!! Very nice and quiet neighborhood that was only 1-2 blocks away from bus stops that would take you literally anywhere in Edinburgh. Less than 15 minutes walk/bus ride to major tourist venues. Coffee shops, hardware/grocery stores easy walking distance. Very nice comfortable apartment. Price was reasonable compared to listings closer to major tourist venues that were much more expensive. It would have been nice if there were instructions for use of combo washer/dryer.

Worked out fine for our 4 night visit.
Apartment is as advertised. Clean & newly remodeled. We brought an in-tub plastic mat ( cut down to ~18” square which was very helpful in this very clean but smooth slanted modest sized tub with shower head & curtain.). Use google maps for best walking & bus routes. ( Remember that walking time can take a bit longer than estimated in g maps )

Edinburgh stop
Perfect place for a two couples or a family of 4. The apartment is perfectly located away from the bustle and bustle of old town for a good nights rest. It’s is literally 4 bus stops from Waverly train station and a (wee) walk, with a convenience store just as you get off the bus. The bed and pull out sofa bed are very comfortable, the couches are also comfy. Kitchen is good size, but the table is tiny, but serves the purpose. It could be a bit more stocked, as there were no condiments nor napkins/paper towels. The bathroom is updated, but small. I caution if you have difficulty getting out of tubs as it is pretty slippery and sort of awkward. The host was Great!! I would definitely book again.

Clean but major discrepancies
The property was definitely clean and was in a great location. But, there were some major discrepancies between the Vrbo post and the instructions once you were inside. I think it might be dual listed with Vrbo and another letting agency, so there are two different instructions. The first, and most severe difference was with beds. My friend and I were travelling together but searched for Vrbo properties based on whether or not it had 2 beds. This Vrbo said that it had a bed and a pull out couch. The listing says, "a large bright sitting room with a 2 piece suite which converts to an extremely comfortable sofabed." The ad also says, "The sitting room also contains a large double sofa bed, allowing this apartment to sleep up to four guests" and " All bookings are based on sharing" whatever that meant. We arrived at the Vrbo and found that sharing meant that the linens and sheets for the sofa bed were locked in a trunk unless we paid more. For the price that we paid, that was extremely disappointing and struck me as dishonest. The other discrepancies had to do with timings. Vrbo said that we should get the code for the keys that morning. I messaged the host who said that we wouldn't get the code until just before check in (an hour or so). That wasn't ideal because we were travelling and didn't know if we'd have WiFi when we arrived to get the code. Check out time listed on Vrbo was also different from the printed instructions inside.

Home away from home
We really enjoyed our stay in the apartment. My partner was able to work remotely and had no trouble with internet or noise. The place was full of light and confortable for him to work. For me, it was really nice to come back "home" after a day of walking around in the city. Everything is at a walkable distance, yet we did not feel as we were living in a touristic area, which was nice. Overall, we had a lovely stay and would absolutely come back if we are ever in Edimbourg again.

Our own place for a few days
We enjoyed the neighborhood location, access to food shops, walkable to areas of interest. Nice to have 'our own place' at the end of our trip. Apartment was comfortable and well-equipped, except the bathroom was really tiny. We were extremely careful stepping out of the tub. A shower stall would have been a better choice for that little space.

Great spot
The apartment was exactly as pictured. We were really happy with the kitchen and washer/dryer. Windows let in lots of natural light. The bedroom was big - we were wishing the bed was a queen instead of a double. We felt safe in the neighbourhood and walked everywhere. Holyrood Palace was about a 20 minute walk, Waverly Station about 25. I’d definitely recommend this apartment.
