Delightfully surprised by the standard of decor in the flat. Beautifully presented, spotless bathrooms. The photos don't do justice to the calm, bright rooms and cosy beds.
Check in was easy with a keysafe. The flat is on the first floor up some stone stairs in an old tenement building. Neighbours were quiet (although we might not have been, given the piano) and it was lovely to sit at the window and watch the Haymarket bustle.
Rooms are large and light, and the master bedroom has an ensuite and a single day bed as well as the double bed. Two further bedrooms are doubles and share a family bathroom.
The following things were provided so no need to bring your own! Towels and shampoo/body wash, bin liners, washing up liquid and sponges, hairdryer, hand soap.
The kitchen was well equipped for cooking, although the dishwasher wasn't working when we there but Dele explained in advance and is trying to replace it asap.
There is a Sky box for the TV, which was easy to use once Dele explained it by email to us non-Sky users! (v quick to respond to any questions).
The flat is almost opposite Haymarket station, for trains, trams and buses, and is about 20 mins walk from the center of Princes Street. Half an hour on the Airlink 100 bus from the airport. We were forever popping down to Costcutter for essentials - very well stocked - but go to Tesco Express about 10 mins walk away for a larger shop. There are so many eateries to choose from - Mexican, Indian, pub food, fish and chips, as well as a nice looking Italian but it was sadly closed when we went.
In all, it was a stunning flat in a fabulous location, and I would love to stay there again next year.
