5 - 10 min walk from Edinburgh Waverley but once the new tram system is in place you could get a tram to and from the airport. We stayed on a Sunday night for £32 on Leith Walk... crazy value! The room is top floor (3 flights of stairs) and is exactly as described and shown in the pictures. I had read other reviews prior to booking but if you are reasonably clever you can work out the key situation if you think about it! I didn't need to contact Ryan as all the instructions were given. I will be booking again on my next visit to Edinburgh. Hats off to Ryan. Superb Airbnb!
