My family and friends enjoyed this traditional, spacious, homely tenement flat, with its period features. It has everything that a family can need. They didn't have time to explore the history of the area which is well worth digging into as it was once a separate and important port not connected to Edinburgh until much later. They were able to get into the centre of town by public transport with ease, to go on out to East Lothian to a wedding. And they enjoyed the night life in town. All in all a great base for a stay in Edinburgh.
