W.O.W. First, the location - right near the university, a half-mile from the train station, and a short walk to the grassmarket, Royal Mile, and many other attractions. I had only six waking hours in Edinburgh but was able to see so much because of the central location. Somehow, too, the apartment is incredibly quiet. What really sets this Airbnb apart, though, is the space itself. Kelly is an artist and seems to have challenged herself to consider both purpose and design for every item in the space. As one might expect for a place of this quality, Kelly is a truly wonderful person who seems very invested in each guest enjoying her hometown. She has left a wonderfully readable, self-designed map and instructions for getting around the city. I could gush on and on, but you should really just book the place and see for yourself.
