The place was perfect. It sits on a quiet street. However, it only takes five minutes to walk to Morningside Road, one of the coolest areas in Edinburgh. Grocery stores, a local cheese shop, thrift stores, and various local restaurants line the road on both sides. We love the area. Also, this is a great location for using the public transportation. You can take the Lothian buses anywhere you would like and return with no problem. Gill was a wonderful as well. She was prompt in her communication. The place was nice. It was what we expected it to be. For a one-bedroom in the UK, it was actually quite roomy.
