Fully recommend Alistair's flat. The location is great and Alistair left it spotlessly clean and uncluttered, with milk in the fridge and tea and coffee. If you want somewhere that's completely empty of personal belongings, like lots of other places in Edinburgh, then this isn't for you, but to me Alistair has just the right balance. The building itself has all the original features and character, and the walk up to the top floor is good gentle exercise rather than a climb. There's lots of sunlight at the front on sunny days and a fine view north to the back, across the Forth to Fife, so it's atmospheric too. Would very happily return.
