We had a great stay as a family of five. The flat is well situated coming in from or leaving to the airport, being between two tram stops, and is also very close to the Haymarket train station. A trade-off for this convenience is busier streets immediately around the location. The self check-in was smooth, save for the obligatory fiddling with the lockbox. The flat itself is generously sized with big windows, and being on the top floor, the flat had good light and perspective. The trade-off as noted in the listing are the three flights of stairs, an opportunity to marvel at the lofty Georgian ceiling heights.
Inside the flat, nearly all the rooms are very large, save for one of the bedrooms. The bathroom was large and nicely appointed, plenty of bath towels were provided. There is only one, so it could get congested with more adults. The kitchen was so well-appointed with cooking tools, glassware, etc. that it was obvious there must be cutlery, but not obvious where it was. We made it into a game for the kids (hint: it is in a hidden drawer within the drawer under the stovetop.) A more studious guest would have known this from house manual. It would have been handy to have some napkins/paper towels and laundry detergent stocked. The flat was looking a bit worn around the edges, such as stains on the foyer carpet, the bathroom vanity delaminating a bit, and it some of the artwork was off the walls.
Sonia and Chris sent out a handy guide with recommendations for Edinburgh which we enjoyed. I second the reviewer who suggested the nearby Nomad coffee shop. I’d add to that list the Wee Vault, a postage stamp sized sour beer bar and bottle shop immediately around the corner for those who enjoy that sort of thing.
