Pier’s home really has everything you’d need for a stay in Edinburgh, long or short term! Great location, quiet enough to retire to, and you are right on main bus routes to the city centre and onwards to the coast as well. Neighbours were respectful and we had a lovely nights sleep every single night of our stay.
The flat is beautifully presented and spotlessly clean. All the mod cons, including the coffee machine, Apple TV and Scottish Shortbread provided on arrival were an added bonus! It felt cosy and homely.
Casa Amiga coffee shop at the bottom of the street on Leith Walk does fantastic Portuguese pastries and coffees for a light brunch, La Favourita is a great nearby rustic Italian restaurant and if you don’t fancy eating out at all we made use of the huge amount of restaurants on offer on Apps like Deliveroo and JustEat etc.
We opted to bring our own towels to use for the most part, as I wear quite vibrant makeup, and have coloured hair and so this saved a lot of worry with any wayward stains! There is currently another flat in the tenement building undergoing renovation, but this only bothered us when we decided to have a lie in and late brunch before heading off exploring. The beauty of being out and about meant the sound of building work rarely bothered us!
