We really enjoyed our stay at Pascal's place - it's a very nice old house, with beautiful high ceilings, and the apartment had everything we wished for! Pascal even filled our fridge with fresh milk, butter and cereals before arrival :)
The apartment is located close to the sea and there are plenty of restaurants, bars and cafés around the corner, as well as bus stops which take you to the city center. Leith market on Saturdays is great!
It may not be ideal for very light sleepers, as there is the occasional lorry passing by the house.
