Location, location! All roads lead to Iain's apartment, it seems. A straight shot to the castle, to Prince's Street, to Uni and so much else. The flat was well arranged and super comfortable for our family of 4 (two bathrooms - quite the treat!) The beds and linens were quality, the couches comfy, the hot water readily available. Lots of privacy as windows face the upper floors of a theatre and not residence rooms. Yes, the location is near some busy bars, but the double panes and heavy drapes really do keep out 95% of the sound. Loved the local coffee shop (Brew'd?), and the sushi and cafe restaurants on the street. Iain also provided an extensive guide to the house, so no mystery in how to operate the TV, hob, heating, etc. That's something we rarely find in other airbnb's. If you're good with a 2nd floor walk-up, this is an excellent, comfy, spacious place to stay in Edinburgh. We'd book it again, for sure!
