The flat is in an ordinary living area of Edinburgh (rather than the grander central Georgian areas) and has a lot of supermarkets, shops and restaurants very nearby. It is off the main road (good re noise) and is a 10-20 minute walk from the main sights depending on which you go to. It is near the University and opposite a student hall of residence so good for visiting someone at the Uni. We had a little weekend student noise but it wasn't bad. The kitchen has a good amount of equipment - washing machine, microwave, pots & pans, plates etc. The flat is owned by a commercial company and we had a quick response to any queries. Hanging and drawer space is very limited due to bedroom space so we lived out of suitcases to some extent. The shower isn't a power shower or similar so more for rinsing your hair.

We had a good stay there all in all and the flat worked out well for what we wanted to do - meet some family and see the sights.
