Nicola's apartment is the perfect hidden treasure on Airbnb. The photos don't do the flat justice, it's gorgeously decorated and absolutely immaculate. The bed is extremely comfy, and felt like a true home from home.
Location wise - it couldn't have been better, a 10 minute walk to the bottom of the royal mile, a 15 minutes walk to Arthurs Seat, and a 20 minute walk to the new town. It's close enough to everything, but in a secluded and peaceful road away from the hustle.
Nicola responded to our messages quickly, and she was a delight to meet. I'd recommend this place to anyone looking to spend time in Edinburgh.
