3 friends enjoyed this spacious, well lit flat near many, many bus routes that took us all over Edinburgh. The 4 pound All Day pass is a bargain. Cash only on Edinburgh buses!
The flat is close to a truly amazing variety of restaurants and shops, including a wine store, bakery, and Italian restaurant at the Leith Rd. end of the street. Even though we were only a 15 minute walk from Princes St., we think we got more of a feel for a neighborhood than we might have in the Center. Petrea could not have been a more obliging host.
If you have gait or balance issues, or if you need well lit stairs you may want to consider that the building has well-worn, dimly lit, winding stone staircases. The flat is on what U.S. folks would consider to be the third floor.
