The flat was well located and a good location for walking about Edinburgh. The pictures are accurate of the flat so there were no surprises there. We had 4 people, and our adult children said the fold out sofa was quite comfortable. The flat was one flight up some wider stairs, so there are some stairs to carry suitcases. We did not cook in the flat so have no thoughts there. The flat was clean. Our host communicated quickly and was accommodating. There was some noise from the Fringe Festival with the windows open for those noise sensitive, as one of the locations was adjacent to the flat building. It was modest and not troublesome to us.
