Alex’s apartment gets very strong reviews, which is one of the reasons I chose it, and those reviews are certainly justified. His apartment is bright, modern and spacious and brilliantly situated on the Leith shore.
Alex is just the kind of host you want, available and helpful if you need him while at the same time making you feel at home and that the space is yours to enjoy. His tips on travel, sightseeing and eating out were also very useful.
Leith is an excellent place to be based, vibrant and lively and an easy journey from the centre of Edinburgh. There are frequent buses, though I chose the more leisurely stroll along the water of Leith which takes just under an hour to reach Edinburgh New Town.
Overall I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Alex’s apartment and would certainly book again.
