We were in Edinburgh for the Fringe Festival and the location was great. It was quiet at night but not a long walk to most of the venues we saw shows in. We stayed for two weeks and were both working during our trip. The internet is not strong in the apartment, so it's recommended to get a sim card with lots of data so you can use your phone as a hotspot. There are tons of good restaurants and bars nearby. If you're looking for batch brew (filter) coffee, The Source Coffee is right around the corner and has really great coffee.
