Eleanor met us at the flat with a plate of tea and biscuits. She is a lovely lady and very helpful; she made many helpful suggestions for what to see and do around Edinburgh. The flat itself is clean, with towels, shampoo, and body wash provided.
The flat is very centrally located. We did not take public transportation or a taxi until we wanted to go down to Leith. The castle, restaurants, shopping, New Town, hiking is all very close. We even walked from the flat to Arthur's Seat and back.
We highly recommend this flat for anyone staying in Edinburgh. It is roomy, clean, and perfectly located. The value is great and the host is lovely.
