We had a fabulous stay at Taiba's apartment. The accommodation was exactly as described - clean, spacious and the location was just perfect. The view from the lounge /front bedroom was amazing and just a short walk from the apartment was the Grassmarket, Royal Mile and everything else that Edinburgh has to offer.
The apartment was well furnished and the kitchen well equipped - everything we needed was provided, including hair dryer and ghd straighters! The apartment is on the top floor so a number of stairs to climb which was fine for us but may not suit anyone with mobility problems / young children.
We did not have a problem at all with noise from the street as some other guests have mentioned - however our stay was mid week so it was generally quiet in the evenings anyway. There is a construction site approx 200m to the back of the apartment which sprang into life at approx 8:30am but any noise from that was fairly subtle and non-intrusive - it did not bother us in the slightest.
During our stay in Edinburgh we walked up to Arthur's Seat (very very blustery but fantastic views), took a Gin tasting tour at the Edinburgh Gin Distillery and went out to Leith for a fabulous meal at The Kitchin.
All in all we had a fabulous stay and could not fault this apartment - we will definitely be back! Thank you Taiba and Mat.
