We had a great time staying at Rachel’s flat. Rachel was a gracious host and let us check in early in the morning which was so incredibly helpful! Her flat is in a quiet building which is nice if you’re a light sleeper like I am, but it’s still close to both the center of Edinburgh and to the canals in Leith if you’re up for a 20-30 min walk in either direction. I would definitely recommend staying at her place if you’re in Edinburgh!
