The apartment was perfect and Nicola is a great host.
The apartment was spotless, with every thing you could possibly want for a mini-break exploring Edinburgh. If you've not been to Edinburgh before then take my word for it - this apartment could not be in a better location.
From recommendations before hand to texts the day we arrived to make sure everything was ok, as well as fresh milk in the fridge, we couldn't have wanted more from Nicola either.
The one very minor comment I would make (and this is nothing negative about the apartment/Nicola - hence still getting 5 stars for everything!) is that access to the apartment is via quiet a few flights of concrete stairs. Now, if you don't like stairs, you probably shouldn't be exploring Edinburgh! but it's just a heads up that if you are perhaps a bit older, carrying your suitcases up those stairs would be hard work.
Overall, I could not recommend Nicola and this apartment highly enough! we will be back without doubt!
