This flat is great - you really cannot get much more central than this, and it is superb value. While it's in the busy Grassmarket, being at the back of the building means that it is very quiet. Ben is a great host - he mails detailed information in advance so you know all you need to about the flat and local amenities. The flat itself has been recently renovated as is comfortable and well equipped. It is clean and welcoming. There were some basics in the fridge and cupboards - milk, tea, coffee, oil, etc - and the kitchen itself, while compact has everything you would need. We really enjoyed our brief stay, would recommend it to others without reservation - and will almost certainly return.
