John is a very hospitable host. Upon arrival he made us a cup of tea, we had a chat & he showed us around the apartment, explaining how everything worked. Although the apartment is in a large block, it is very quiet. It has 2 bedrooms (of which we had the use of one); an en-suite (with bath), bathroom (with shower), sitting room (TV & WiFi) and kitchen - all of which we had full use. All bedding and towels were provided and the well-equipped kitchen had tea, coffee, milk and some stock kitchen items. The area, Leith, is north east of Edinburgh centre; there are plenty of taxis (£5-£7 from the Centre to apartment) and buses running; but it is quite possible to walk to most places (which is what we did for the 3 days that we were there). We had a very comfortable stay and it was like 'home-from-home'. We wouldn't hesitate to stay at the apartment again if/when we next visit Edinburgh. Thanks again John, and good luck.
