Everything was as the listing said. May be a bit more, then you see on the pictures. In the winter time it can be a bit cold in Edinburg. Also in this flat. We felt cold entering. But please follow the instructions of the host carefully - how the heating system works, and you are fine. I suggest you to turn off the heat when you are not in the apartment. It helps to preserve the energy, the planet and will reduce owner's cost, so he can keep providing you with the reasonable rate. Be responsible and turn off the lights when you leave the apartment! There are sooooo many lights in this place. I lost count. The place is amazing. I am surprised, the listing did not say "high sealing" as this also means more oxygen to breath. More fresh air in the apartment means better sleep. Modern apartments have low sealing and not so much fresh air to breath. So this is a real plus. You will sleep better!. Not to mention the bed, that was heavenly! I did not want to get out of bed! :) Don't be shocked from the looks of the stairwell when you enter. It looks really shabby and rundown. We were scared, when we entered, almost wanted to turn around and take a hotel climbing up with our suitcases without the elevator. But don't worry and let it stop you. Heaven is waiting for you on the top floor, closer to God, where the home away from home is waiting for you..... This review by the way is brutally honest! I admit, I am a very bad client for most of the hosts, because I always tell the truth. Stay here with Colin, and you will want to come back soon!
