When I first made the reservation I received a very quick and courteous answer from the host. We were met by the hosts boyfriend who made us feel real welcome and showed us everything about the apartment. It was very nice, just like advertised and very clean. The location is really amazing, everything is close by! No need to use public transportation, you can see everything from here on foot. In total we were very happy with our trip and would recommend this apartment to anyone wanting a great stay in Edinburgh.
