This flat is the perfect place to stay in Edinburgh's New Town. It is an easy 5-minute walk up from Princes Street and an easy walk over to Old Town. Public transport and many restaurants are very nearby. It is exceptionally easy to get to via the tram from the airport and very near the main train station and bus station. The flat is exactly as described and the host very communicative. The area restaurants quiet down by 11 pm and I was not bothered by street noise, except the emptying of bottles into sidewalk bins once nightly around 11 pm. There is a clothes washing machine in the kitchen and all the modern amenities in the kitchen and bathroom. It is on the 2nd floor (3rd floor for Americans) so not a good choice for those needing an elevator. Whether you are just sight-seeing on vacation or in Edinburgh for the festivals, this flat is great. I highly recommend it for a couple or a single person.
