This was a perfect "pad" for our visit to Edinburgh. The clean, cute flat with loft is ideally located for seeing the city highlights.
A short walk up the hill from the train station. Sandy met up with us in the early afternoon and got us settled in. She gave us an orientation to the apartment and the city and made themselves available to us if we needed anything (which we did not). The place had a nice view across the train station and over to the Scott Monument and Princess Street.
Going out and hitting the sites was a matter of just stepping out of the front of the building. We had a our 3 and 6 year old children in tow and the place had everything we needed including nice little kitchen, bathtub and of course cable TV. The convenience of the location was nice with little ones, as it was very easy to check back into the apartment after short trips around town. We had to be cautious with the spiral staircase the kids were quite attracted to be, but we were vigilant and there were no injuries on the stairs.
Thanks to Sandy and Ian for making our visit to Edinburgh and our first experience with AirB&B a big success.
