Fiona, the host, made me feel most welcome in this very stylish, bright and happy mews home which is at the same time impeccably clean, very private, airy and warm. Fiona understands what welcoming a new guest is about and she leaves 'little' attention gifts in this duplex flat (e.g. flowers, breakfast treats like her own-made granola which is delicious and a must try). The art / art books that are spread around are a joy for the knowledgeable or unknowledgeable guest. A treat for the eye and for the mind.
The listing description is very accurate. The neighbourhood is very friendly, quiet, cultured and cool. The access to the private gardens is a treat that one can not miss. The privacy of this home makes the guest feel inhabiting a 'country' home - not a middle of the city home, which this one is. One can sleep deeply and undisturbed after a busy day in the middle of a buzzing city like Edinburgh. It is a cool, stylish, quiet and happy place. As I said: immaculately clean. It is also a bonus that Fiona lives 5 minutes away. She also answers promptly to any Airbnb request - unlike many other Airbnb owners.
