Claudia's place is in an excellent location, right next to the wonderful Botanical Gardens and easy walking distance into Edinburgh centre too. It was a lovely spacious apartment in the lower part of a large house (not the entire house as you may think from the photos ;P). The rooms are wonderfully decorated and large and airy.
Parking is available (at cost) on the street outside but you do have to time things well as it's 4 hour max, wasn't a big problem as we were driving out of the city most days but if you are planning on spending a lot of time walking from the apartment around Edinburgh then you will need to plan your parking carefully.
