Sally’s place is ideally located to walk up Arthur’s seat and visit the old town! It’s in a quiet, residential area, but very close to many restaurants, especially Asian.
Sally provided restaurant recommendations and useful info. Towels, hot water bottles, a kettle with black and herbal tea and breakfast (cereal and toast with jams, spreads, honey...) were available, and much appreciated!
Sally was flexible about checkout, letting me leave my case at the flat. However, it turned out I couldn’t check in early (apparently this is never the case on a Friday - could be added to the listing) and Sally forgot to inform me before I landed.
The room is a nice size for two people. The shared bathroom is rather narrow, and Sally sleeps in the kitchen, so this is not a space that you’ll be in except for breakfast.
The mattress is a bit soft, so not ideal for your back, and the space can get chilly when the heating’s off.
But all in all a good choice for a short stay in Edinburgh!
