Patrick and Chee's apartment is the PERFECT AirBnB setting and hosts with the most. Our flight landed an hour early and Patrick messaged giving us a heads up that the room wouldn't be ready until 10am but we could drop off our bags if we wanted. It was nice that he was tracking the flight and gave us a timely message. Great first impression!
We grabbed breakfast in the cafe next to the apartment while Patrick finished cleaning our room. It worked out great!
After heading up to the apartment, Patrick sat us down in the kitchen while he ran us through a handmade map of Edinburgh loaded with food/attractions/museums/shops/places to see. It was INCREDIBLY useful in fact we carried it with us the entire time. We rarely took out of phones (a lovely break from the daily tech).
We had the room without the en suite bathroom and it worked out perfectly. We didn't mind going down the hall a bit for the toilet/shower. The hallway is carpeted and since its a shoe free house it was very very clean and tidy(no cold feet at night!). The bathroom was very clean and tidy. Everything worked great. The building is a bit old so the water pressure from the shower is a bit slow but worked just fine for us.
The room itself was VERY clean and came with all the amenities one could need and more. Lovely chocolate and tea selection, clean bed/sheets, amazing views outside our adorable room window (we loved the magnetic shutter, it made the room so dark in the morning for a nice sleep in).
We didn't get to take advantage much of the continental breakfast provided but it was beautifully set up for us every morning. Lots to choose from.
I cannot rave enough about the location of the apartment. It was incredible. We always walked out the back door because it was pretty much on the Royal Mile. Also we loved the Jolly Judge pub. We went every night and grabbed a pint!
Thank you Patrick and Chee for an amazing stay! Looking forward to seeing you again! :-)
