We really enjoyed our stay in Fiona's flat in Portobello, and, having booked six months in advanced just can't understand why recent previous reviewers left such terrible comments.
It's great!
We had no issues with parking outside, or at least close by in the same street.
Please don't be put off by the outside entrance from the street to the apartment, as it's typical to properties in the city of this type.
It's part of the charm of what it would have been like to live in a period tenement building such as this, as is the amazing view over the rear gardens.
The apartment itself is just as pictured in the listing - every possible thing is provided.
It was bright and clean, although, to be fair, there were marks on the carpet caused by careless previous renters!!!
The bed was amazingly comfortable.
Amazing bus links into the city from near the apartment - single ticket is £1.80!
Close to all shops and pubs, really close to the seaside with it's own traditional feel.
Would highly recommend the Foresters Guild on Portobello High Street, along with the Portobello Tap ( serving the most amazing burgers we have ever had ).
Don't miss visiting the Royal Yacht Britannia in Leith whilst here, you can also go on the bus.
We highly recommend this listing and felt totally safe at all times, the local people were exceptionally friendly.
