Alberto was a lovely host - really good at responding to communication. He met us and even offered to bring us extra keys if we needed to. The flat was very warm and cosy.

The beds and shower in the flat are great. This is a good location for a short city stay. The location is fabulous for walking everywhere and you can park at the University if you need to.

The kitchen isn't really usable and definitely needs doing up. There isn't a kettle or a microwave so we couldn't make a cup of tea or have breakfast at the flat. This is why the flat wouldn't be suitable for a long term stay. I wouldn't call this flat child friendly as the building isn't very clean and there was a constant nasty smell in the corridors. The kitchen cupboards, cutlery and crockery were dirty and there was cider and gin left behind.

If you want a quick weekend stay in Edinburgh with your buddies then it is a good flat.
