Host Duncan is wonderfully helpful and the flat was great. It was a short walk to train station, bus station, TRAM to airport, and many other amenities such as small grocery store, bars, pubs, restaurants, and the Edinburgh Playhouse theater. So close to the city yet a block off the beaten path, so it was quiet and peaceful also. The flat has 2 comfortable bedrooms and modern updates and a very functional kitchen. We were surprised to find the added bonus that the living room window had a view of the night fireworks over Edinburgh Castle during the Military Tattoo. Access to the flat requires climbing 48 steps in an interior spiral staircase so not recommended for those with mobility limitations. Otherwise, book in advance if you want to reserve this one - great location for the festivals and for exploring Edinburgh sites.
