Vivienne is an absolutely lovely host! I stayed at Vivienne’s for nearly 4 months and I had a great time. She made me feel so at home right from the start.

I had a lovely time in Edinburgh and most of that is probably due to Vivienne’s kindness and hospitality!
When I first arrived at her place, she explained everything and gave me a nice warm Scottish welcome. She gave me a map of Edinburgh and crossed off the places where I should go to- If you have any questions- Her local knowledge is wide-ranging!

The keys to the flat are extraordinary! They are very old and there are not many of these left in Edinburgh (really loved coming home and unlocking the door with
these special keys! :-)
The flat was always super cosy and super clean. All the soaps provided in the bathroom are also for guests which was super nice!
The kitchen is very lovely and the view from the kitchen window is just super pretty and relaxing. It was well equipped and missed nothing which made cooking super easy.

If you feel like a cuppa after a hard day you can always pop to the kitchen and choose from different teas provided (including shortbread!).

I got my own cupboard in the kitchen and my own shelf in the fridge - There was nothing I could possibly have missed. The washing machine is also accessible for guests! :-)

My room was very cosy! The window was huge, and I really miss the view in the morning! Vivienne has a great collection of movies and she told me right from the beginning that I am free to watch them anytime.
In the 4 months I called Vivienne’s place my home we
had a lot of nice TV series/movie evenings (especially Hitchcock movies) and lovely chats - I will miss that a lot!
Vivienne’s flat is very close to the city centre. There are a lot of buses going from Leith Walk and Easter Road (both within 4 minutes walking distance) :-) .
Supermarkets are close by. I often went over for a quick shopping at Lidl (4 minutes). In general, it is a pleasant area to live in. I can totally recommend Vivienne’s flat to everyone who wishes to stay in Edinburgh both short and long-term.
I absolutely loved it and I already miss "home" so much!
THANK YOU Vivienne
