Charlotte was incredibly easy to communicate with, leading up to and during my trip. Most of all, she was very accommodating with our arrival/departure times. My friends and I arrived in Edinburgh before check-in time, but she arranged to have her husband open up the apartment so we can drop off our luggage. My friends also had a later flight past the check-out time so she arranged to have my friends store their luggage at the Coffee Mill across the street. It definitely put us at ease knowing we didn't have to drag our stuff everywhere we went especially with the cobblestone streets and uphill/downhill areas.

With regards to the apartment, it was really nice to have a place to ourselves so we didn't have to worry about interfering with the host's daily routine. The place is extremely convenient and in walking distance for most of the main attractions in Edinburgh. The place was clean and had all the amenities you need and more. Bathroom and kitchen were stocked. We definitely made use of the electric kettle to make tea to go with the famous shortbread biscuits Charlotte provided, along with Scottish Haggis, milk/cereal, yogurt, and a loaf of bread. Unfortunately because our trip was so short, we didn't get through everything but it was so sweet of Charlotte to welcome her guests in this manner. She is definitely thoughtful and caring, and her place is certainly in a prime location to thoroughly enjoy Edinburgh. It's also within a 10-15 minute walk to the bus stop that takes you to the airport, and of course there's a shortcut to the castle through the Grassmarket. What more can you ask for? Recommended! :)
