The apartment is very cozy, warm and convenient to public transportation and an easy walk to the center of town. Elizabeth was very welcoming and accessible. Parking is available off-street, and the apartment was extremely clean and well-equipped. Though there is no dishwasher- that we didn't find a handicap - there IS a washer/dryer, which was greatly appreciated. The flat was a flight up from street level and parking is located at the back of the building, off-street. There seem to be recycling bins for bottles and paper at the end of the block, where you will also find a grocery. DO check out a great bakery in the neighborhood, Twelve Triangles. You'll find lots of wonderful restaurants in the Leith area and all within walking distance.
