Communication with Helen was quick and very friendly. Both Helen and her mother Maureen, who took care of us when Helen was away, are great hosts. The apartment itself is cosy, nicely furnished and clean. It is located in a calm neighbourhood and well connected to the public transport system (bus stop about 2 minutes away by foot; the ride to the city centre takes 5-10 minutes). We enjoyed our stay a lot and would definitely recommend Helen's apartment to anyone visiting Edinburgh.
