Very clean, and close to public transportation, restaurants, and grocery. My husband and our 4 kids (ages 6-11) enjoyed our stay. It was very cosy for the 6 of us but we enjoyed it very much and had everything we needed. Loved being able to make a quick cup of coffee in the morning. We had one minor issue at the beginning of stay—Sarah was extremely responsive and went above and beyond what needed to be done to fix it. The welcome basket was greatly appreciated as well. Great place to stay for seeing the sights in Edinburgh. Thanks Sarah!
