Edinburgh is a beautiful city that has a lot to offer. I just spent 9 days and enjoyed my stay very much. I will definitively go back and if available, will stay in Charlotte’s apartment again. The loft is perfectly located, just a 15 minute walk to the Scott monument. The apartment itself is exactly as shown on the pictures. It is spacious, comfortable, beautifully decorated, has a lot of natural light, beautiful garden on the back to look at and is very clean.
In less than 5 minutes you can walk to a dozen wonderful restaurants, all located on the side street. The grocery store is at a 5 minute walk.
And Charlotte, well, Charlotte is one of the best hosts I’ve met using Airbnb. She is very professional and organized. The service she provides is equally as good as the service you would get from a good hotel. Charlotte has a document ready for you that will explain in great detail how to get to the apartment. The guest book she has ready for you in the loft is filled with useful information about the city. If you want to go on day trips, Charlotte will make suggestions and answer your questions.
I highly recommend staying in Charlotte’s loft.
