The host was wonderful -extremely responsive- and the apartment was impeccably clean and beautifully decorated. It feels larger than it appears in pictures and you will have everything you need. It's a good 15-20 minute walk to the center of Edinburgh, but the area where it is located has great restaurants, bakeries, cheese shop, grocery store, etc. So, if you don't want a long walk back, you can find great food locally and it is less touristy there and hence a better price. We would definitely stay there again! Five-star service and space!
