We never met Lisa, but her friend, Sofia was a wonderful host. She was very prompt in answering our messages and though she wasn't there when we checked in, she had left very clear directions about where to find the key and which room was ours.

Sofia and Lisa are extremely generous with their flat--we were welcome to help ourselves to food in the kitchen and to make ourselves at home in the livingroom. There was lots of great information about Edinburgh--magazines, guidebooks and the Fringe Festival catalog available. The flat is on a quiet, charming street within easy walking distance of the train station, coach station, the Royal Mile and St. Andrews Square. Fantastic place and I would happily stay there again.
