This is a quaint space that’s been very thoughtfully decorated - tiny extras that make life easier have clearly been thought about, like a massive supply of tea and coffee (including a loose leaf tea pot - a rarity in Airbnb spaces - a coffee press, AND a Nespresso machine). The manual on the desk left me with complete clarity on how everything works - and the host was available whenever I did have a question or comment. I have to add that the multiple warm lights and rugs add a cosy atmosphere in a way that most (if not all) Airbnb’s at this price point rarely think about. On top of this, products in the bathroom are supplied the way a hotel would - adding so much value to a place that is already extremely valuable for its location (short walk to almost anything central). There is plenty of storage space and shelving for a 2-day, 2-week, or probably even 2-month stay, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone wanting a comfortable and convenient location that’s full of ease. Also, as someone who can’t stand thousands of stairs, it’s lovely to find an apartment in Edinburgh that doesn’t feel like it’s at the top of a never ending tower.
As a frequent Airbnb traveler, I’ve seen my fair share of apartments that feel frustrating or stressful because of things not being quite right - if I were Goldilocks and this were porridge, this apartment would be what I would consider “just right”.
