Our stay in Edinburgh was not totally succesfull because of my health issues but Vincente and Emma did theyr best to help out. They managed to get apartment cleaned and available faster as I was just stranded in the city since 11am with a high fever. Place was really clean and had all the basics we needed. We just did our shoping in the mall which is really close to the apartment and we were all set. Taxi from there to the old town costs like 6£ but you have a bus stop almost in front of the house. Good wifi and netflix connection to the tv saved me as I would kill myself after whole day laying in bed doing nothig because of a fever. So in a worst case scenerio you got tv ;p.
Lether sofa also makes it so much better ;) Definitely recommend!
