Gretel's place is well placed for Haymarket station (about 10 minutes walk) and the conference centre (15 minutes walk). There are two supermarkets very close by, so it's easy to provision up for home cooking. We saw a lot of restaurants nearby but didn't try any. She has a pull-up table in the main area, and dining room chairs in a storage area so it's easy to have a proper sit-down meal. The kitchen has a surprising range of cooking basics, oil, salt, pepper, spices and stocks, for example. We appreciated the welcome gift of Scottish ales and shortbread. The space is bright, with big windows. It feels loved, and we enjoyed our stay very much. Highly recommended.
