Valerie has a beautiful, modern and spacious flat located on the lower level of her home. There is a living room, bath, and separate bedroom, all spotless and very comfortable. The closet space is excellent, and everything was well-maintained and in good working condition. Valerie is also a most gracious host, and was kind enough to provide some treats on our arrival.
The only word of caution is that the home is in a quiet residential area a good distance from the bustling downtown area. The cab ride is around 10 pounds, and while the bus is cheaper for two, the walking, waiting and travel time will average over 30 minutes. Nevertheless, Edinburgh is a fairly expensive town, and accommodations in center city will severely tax the wallet. We were happy with the trade-off and would stay again, but for those who value convenience above all, you will have to take this into account.
