This is a lovely flat where you will have the quietest place to sleep after a long day, and you won't even hear a sound at night - plus the bed is super comfy. The flat is located in a small alley to the back, so it can be a bit worrying if you are coming by foot alone at night, but as we know, Edinburgh is a very safe city, so this wouldn't be an inconvenience, if you have a car, though, much better. The check in was overall okay, though the key lockbox is a bit hard to find in the big (and lovely) garden and you might look a bit suspicious while going around trying to find it even when following the instructions given, but they were there and the access was okay. As discussed with Piers, the window in his bedroom is broken and cannot be open if you want some fresh air in the bedroom, but I suggested he should buy a small fan for future guests especially for summer days and he said he would, so this should be sorted for future guests - which is very good. The kitchen has everything you may need and was looking nice, and the bathroom is amazing too, spacious and where you could have lovely showers after longs days going around the city. I have also mentioned Piers to update some of the instructions left for guests (such as the ones relating to managing the heating or a suggestion to improve the TV at some point, which is not a smart TV so you should have your own laptop if you have a rainy night in or want to chill and watch Netflix etc), and hopefully he will take that onboard too.
Also, if you are planning a long stay, please do consider that washing machine is not available for guests - so you would need to wash by hand or go to a Launderette. Piers explains this in his advert clearly, so this comment is not a complaint at all and it is just an extra "be mindful of and remember that" comment.
Location in relation to transport is really good too, having buses to the city centre - 20 minutes ride - such as bus 7 or 14, and these again are 5 minutes away from the flat by foot, which is amazing. And you have the ASDA Superstore also 10 minutes away by foot so this is really convenient.
I had a nice stay, I slept really well and whenever I had a query, they replied promptly. So this is a place I would recommend, especially for long stays (a week or more). You also have the bus 200 5 minutes away from the flat that takes you straight to the airport for £4.50 and starts at 4 AM, so this was great and super handy for me!
Thank you,
