This was our first AirBnB experience, and it's been fantastic. Throughout Adrian was a communicative, helpful & extremely flexible host. The location, in a very quiet local authority block just off Holyrood Road and on the edge of Holyrood Park, is perfect for those keen to make the most of the Fringe festival - 5 minutes' walk from the Pleasance Courtyard, and just over 10 from George Square, the Pleasance Dome and the Gilded Balloon. If you want to explore Arthur's Seat & Salisbury Crags, it's a short hop down the hill & through a playground to get into the park itself. There's a small Tesco about 3 minutes' walk away, and a larger one on Nicholson Street if you need a wider range of things.

The flat itself is great: even more spacious than it looks from the listing photos, well maintained and very thoughtfully equipped - plenty of kitchen stuff, a dishwasher (godsend!) and a washing machine. We were met by Adrian's wife Emily, who showed us round thoroughly, and left us a comprehensive 'welcome pack' (milk, bread, eggs, olive oil, tea & coffee... all the basics and a bit more besides), which made settling in a breeze. We stayed with our 3 kids, 2 of whom decided that they'd share the double bed in the second bedroom, but there is a spare mattress also if 3 separate beds are needed. (And on the subject of beds, they were all incredibly comfortable - no soggy mattresses here.)

All in all, we couldn't fault it. An absolute dream of a stay. Thank you!
