Ellie and Scott’s place has a good location in regards to the city. Not super central but definitely in walking distance. Also close to Arthur’s Seat and other outdoor spots and parks.
The apartment itself was a bit disappointing. We found it to be quite dusty and there were spots of what seemed to be dead flies on the walls. We were also disappointed to see that a some of the basics listed weren’t here (salt&pepper, shower gel, shampoo).
If you’re over 170cm, be aware that the shower head is very small.
Overall, we had a good time in Edinburgh. Check-in and check-out was very easy, with clear instructions from Ellie&Scott.
