We really liked the flat. It is a beautiful old flat in a beautiful building. It is very comfortable, although perhaps a little 'genteely shabby-chic'. It is a good lay out and it works very well with a lovely spacious sitting room and kitchen with everything you need. It is also central but amazingly quiet - once inside, it is almost as if you are in the countryside ensuring a good nights sleep! Uwe also made sure that the flat was welcoming in having all the basics such as milk,coffee, tea, olive oil, washing detergents, shampoos etc which really is thoughtful - as well as a cheery bunch of flowers and bowl of fruit. We were in Edinburgh for the festivals (the book and fringe are our favourites - although these days there seem to be loads of different ones), so didn't spend hours and hours in the flat - but when we did it was very comfortable.
